A helmet worn by the bravest



This is a significant artifact from WW2 as this helmet belong to one of our American soldier who fought for our country. His name was G.W. Drake and I picked this artifact basically because this helmet represents so much for each soldier cause once they put it on, their out there risking their lifes to protect others. Every helmet can kind of tell you a story as they had always wear during battle and can mean so much for a family who lost someone dearly and this is a great item to be remembered by.
