Doughboy Helmet of the 13th Infantry Division of WWI
Description: We are offering a relative-rare Doughboy helmet from WWI. It is complete with the original liner and chin strap. This is one you seldom see in the market place. The 13th Division was activated at Camp Lewis, Washington on 16 July 1918 as part of the U.S. military mobilization for World War I. It was manned and trained at Camp Lewis in preparation for combat in France, and formed from a few existing units as the organization's nucleus, while draftees, predominantly from the West Coast of the United States, filled out the majority of the division. The "square" 13th Division's complement of four regiments included the 1st, 44th, 75th, and 76th Infantry Regiments. In August 1918, the regiments were organized to form two brigades—the 25th (1st and 75th Regiments, plus the 38th Machine Gun Battalion) -- and the 26th Brigade (44th and 76th Regiments, plus the 39th Machine Gun Battalion). The shoulder Sleeve Insignia of the 13th Division, featuring a horseshoe and a black cat, in keeping with the organization's tongue in cheek nickname, "Lucky 13th".
