Dear PARENTS

Dear Parents;
At last ! have found a souvenir
which cared enough about to take the
trouble to send, Yesterday ! mailed a
German helmet TO you, and | shall be
waiting to hear II II reaches you, II
came from an interesting place which
you have read about II in the newspa-
pers did not pick up the helmet my
self but have been where II was picked
up and the fellow who picked II up
parted with il for ten francs, (about
$3.50, Helmets with a spike are not
used now as far as can find out, Eel
lows who have seen numerous helmets
say that they have not seen one with
a spike only in some souvenir store win
dow.
The chin strap Is missing on the one
/ sent you, but the rivets remain TO
which the strap was fastened The
helmet is made TO fl the head by lacing
a string across between the points Of
leather, and by putting padding in the
little pockets inside Of the leather band,
The knobs on the sides are for fastening
on a heavy front plate worn by snipers
to defect bullets, A sharpshooter
lsniper hiding behind some cover,
might have TO expose his head and face
as far down as his nose, With the hea-
Wy front plate, bullet could not hurt
him unless it hit the space about an
inch or so wide between the helmet and
the nose, have not seen any Of the
front plates but others have described
them TO me- The narrow part OF the
helmet is the front,
do not think Of anything more to
describe, / have been told that veter-
ans Of several OF the great battles OF the
past three years who witnessed the
fight where this helmet was lost, say
that this fight was as intense and fierce
as any Of the worst for the numbers
The Germans greatly out
the "Yanks" but they found
out what kind Of stuff those Americans
were made of, and they, the Boche,
were entirely out of luck.
Through no fault of mine, ! was not
in this scrap, but | heard the lombard
ment and saw some Of the shells burst
ing, and since, have talked with sew
eral who did take part in the hottest of
the fight
have been to the cemetery where
some II the dead are buried Each
grave has a little wooden cross and
plate with the soldiers name To each
cross is tied little L, S flag placed
there by Salvation Army girls.
| probably will send other souvenirs
when | find such as like, and can get
them 10 an Office.
