Nice display, can't get enough of these early splinters, especially at the great prices they can be had for these days.
Looks like you've got the less numerous officer model with detachable hood.

Thanks for the comments koalorka yes it quite a striking pattern ,mine seems quite washed out ,i have the later splinter pattern but only as a helmet cover unfortunately .for the display i removed the hood temporarily and added it to the m36 ,whether this was a done practise i dont really know ,most referance pictures just show the steel pot as is
