WWII GERMAN LUFTSCHUTZ FIRE HELMET
This is a German WWII Luftschutz helmet. Complete with the leather neck protector. The side of the helmet
has air vents to allow better cooling of the head. The original paint of the helmet was black. The
white paint indicated the helmet was used in the service of air raids.
The police employed the same type of helmet.
The Luftschutz helmet has a leather liner with several sections tied together with a string. The top of the
helmet has a pad which allowed the head to rest more comfortably. The leather neck protecor keeps
ambers from burning the back of the neck.
The edges of the helmet are rolled. This is a similar process as that used in the manufacturing of the M-35
type helmet. The chin strap is draped across the visor section.
