well your half right I note that American diamond insignia are well painted on for MG battalions; this one is hastily stenciled....letting the helmet color fill in for black... PSSST!!! Hey Rhodes:

In May 2014, the UK's Health and Safety Executive, in consultation with the Imperial War Museum, advised that WWI-era helmets were not safe to handle, owing to the likelihood of them containing asbestos It advised that schools should not allow pupils to handle such artefacts, but should instead ensure that the objects were either safely disposed of, have the asbestos removed from the object or safely display the object.
Look but don't touch !
