Summary

Description
Deutsch: Stahlhelm, Modell 1916 mit Hakenkreuzbemalung von Angehörigen der am Lüttwitz-Kapp-Putsch 1920 beteiligten Marine-Brigade Ehrhardt. Um 1920. Stahl, Leder. 15 x 23,5 x 31 cm. Deutsches Historisches Museum, Berlin. Siehe auch https://www.dhm.de/lemo/bestand/objekt/mi006911 .
English: German World War I steel helmet (German: Stahlhelm M1916) painted with a Swastika, used by a member of the Marinebrigade Ehrhardt, a Free Corps (Freikorps) group of around 6,000 men formed in the aftermath of World War I, articipating in the Kapp Putsch (Kapp–Lüttwitz Putsch), an attempted coup of the German national government in Berlin on 13 March 1920. Photo taken in 2011 in the German Historical Museum (Deutsches Historisches Museum), Berlin.

Hitler first saw a swastika used by a right-wing paramilitary group in 1918. Later he adopted it for the Nazi Party. Here is one of the early helmets of that group.
  • Uaer comment on www.warrelics.eu: It claims to be an M-16 but I do not see the chinstrap lug rivets so I think it is an M-18.
