Russian Ssh40M helmet

Russian Ssh40M helmet
 
I present you my Russian Ssh 40M helmet.
This helmet is in a good condition despite his age.
I found Ssh stands for stalnoy shlyem and means steel helmet.
The model 40 has been in use from 1940 into the seventies.
The Ssh40M was ment for use by motorised troops.
