"Battle Battered" Winter Camouflage

Winter 1944 is one of the harshest of the century, temperatures drop and the Allies feel the cold in the Ardennes forest. The German counterattack weighs heavily on the troops' morale but the lines hold. Camouflage is essential in this white and frozen environment.

  • "Battle Battered" Winter Camouflage paint

    The M1 infantry helmet is typically painted with a shade of paint that matches the US army's color from 1936 to 1944. The paint has a matte finish that gradually becomes dull over time, providing an authentic, weathered appearance, similar to the original helmets.

  • "Battle Battered" Winter Camouflage texture

    The M1 infantry helmet shell was coated with a cork texture that served both practical and aesthetic purposes. The texture broke up the soldier's silhouette and reduced sun glare, providing camouflage and protection. The cork is applied with the paint, making it an integral part of the helmet's design.

  • "Battle Battered" Winter Camouflage chinstrap

    The M1 helmet's chinstrap is a replica created by Mon Casque M1, featuring a woven strap that accurately resembles the original. Although the metal buckles used in the chinstrap were produced after the war, they still provide a secure fastening to the helmet and contribute to its durability.
