Belgian WWII Army 'Casque Adrian modèle 1926' (M1926) Adrian Steel Combat Helmet and Liner. MISC 116. - MISC 116
The Casque Adrian modèle 1926 was used by the French and Belgian armed forces during the World War II. The French and Belgian forces used the Adrian helmet in the Battle of France. After the French capitulation, Vichy France, the French Resistance and some units of the Free French Forces adopted it until 1951 in the French army and the 70s for the French police. Based on the M15 French Adrian Helmet the M26 helmet was modified to be stronger and was made from one piece of metal. The joining rim around the helmet was no longer there. Several smaller ventilation holes were made in this model in placement of the large hole in the M15, as this was considered a design weakness. In the period between wars Belgium started to produce a M26 helmet with a wider rim and a different comb than the French one. This Belgian M1926 helmet retains most of the original black paint, complete with the original six tongue leather liner, chin strap, and lion’s head front plate. 7-7 1/8 size for a medium sized head. The price includes UK delivery. MISC 116.
