- Hello my friends!!
First of all, I owe you an apology for being inactive for such a long time!
Thank you all for being patient, I appreciate each and everyone of you!!
A lot of things happened the past few months, but I'm finally back with a new video!!
In this video, I will be restoring an original German World War 1 M1916 steel helmet!
A while ago, I was able to buy a nice original WW1 German M16 Helmet shell for a good price.
It was post war repainted, so for me, a perfect helmet to restore back to it's former glory!
We will strip the helmet from it's post war paint, give it a new Historically Correct paint job, insert a liner and chinstrap, and even camouflage it the correct way!
We will also make sure the helmet looks well worn and used!
Be sure to watch till the end, because I can assure you, the end result is amazing!!
I hope you enjoy the video!! :)

Normandy camo is the best

@@History-Secretswe subcribers are your knights! 💂🏻♂️🤴 👸 💂🏻♂️
Absolute legend…. Historically correct!
Yes Sir!! 💪😎
Hostorically correct!
A video from history secrets makes everyones day. Good that you are back soldier!
Also you needed the break everyone has to rest.
Thank you so much for the kind support!!
You don’t have to make content just because you haven’t uploaded in a while, you can do whatever you want.
Your channel has really really inspired me to start collecting militaria stuff, I have a Brodie Mk II, a German Feldmütze, a Austrian Feldkappe and a Chinese field cap, infact right now I am waiting for a M15 Adrian, A WW1 Russian cap and a Korean empire kepi to arrive. I really love collecting now and it’s because of you. Even if you stopped uploading you have changed many people’s lives ❤
Thank you for showing the production tag, this helmet was produced in a towm 20min away from my home thats crazy.
Miss History secrets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow that is amazing, condrats!
And the trip to america sounds amazing to!!! And my favourite camo is the classy normandy camouflage. Great video!!
Greetings from Denmark
Hahahaha, yes!!!! And thank you!! Indeed, very excited for it! 🇺🇲 I agree, I love the Normandy Camouflage! Thank you for watching!!
Good to see you again Nick…🫡
Thank you for watching!!
Nice to see that you are okay and that your back for all of us to see again Nick, congrats on the good things that have happened for you as well.
Thank you so much!! 😄
You know it’s a good day when history secrets uploads! Great helmet restoration!
Thank you so much!!
@@History-Secrets your welcome, I’ve been waiting so long for a vid, I am very happy u managed to pump another banger out!
You are my inspiration for my collection. Thank you so much
That's so awesome!! 😄
I love World War I German helmets
Me too!!
And just think World War I German soldiers wore leather helmets for a while before they switch to steel helmets
Have you ever watched all quiet on the western front 1976 you can watched on CZcams. It’s a really good movie. It goes for the German perspective of World War I
@@sarahpeterson-dg1xq or the 2022 version that one was pretty at least in My opinion
I am glad you are back
He is back😊🎉 Great restoration and thanks for coming back.
Its great to see you happy man keep it up
Thank you!!
just this morning i was wondering about when you will post!
I am just very happy to see you met someone and you don't have to worry..we are glad you're safe!
And i will say the helmet came out stunning! Plus the leather liner after aging is just the cherry on top
Wow I’ve literally been joining a reenactment group while you were gone, honestly you helped me find out what the hobby was and I thank you. Love from a 6th ss reenacter in America 🇺🇸
The legend is back! You inspired me to start collecting, I had studied for a long time and a couple months ago I got an GY66 m35 Austro-Hungarian helmet alongside two US Vietnam era M1 Helmets. After some time of collecting I've gotten some awesome pieces of history like a piece of trench art from the battle of Verdun, a Prussian helmet, ammo crates, etc. Thinking back to it I owe it all to you. These past weeks have not been so great for me and my family for reasons of which I will not get into here but watching your videos really helped me get through it. You should do another trench video if you get the chance I think that would be pretty cool. I don't want to type too much so I'll stop myself here, thanks so much for everything and have a good day
Absolutely brilliant. Super happy for you, and I can’t wait to see more content from you in 2024. Cheers!
I am so happy that he’s back. He got me into World War II. Congrats, Nick.
I am so happy for you excited to see many videos with the both of you
Loved the video Nick! The helmet camouflage looked amazing by the end!
I love the content you make, it's inspired me to collect and save military history aswell!
Thank you so much!
Glad to see you back. Congrats to you and the love of your life. That's great that you'll be visiting the USA! Maybe you could make some history secrets videos here by visiting some old battle grounds? Great job on the helmet. Looking forward to more videos from you.
Looks incredible! You did a great job restoring this one. Great video as always, Nick!
Great to see you again! And congratulations!🎊
Amazing result Nick!!! happy you're back
glad you're back with a new video. glad you met someone also!
Nick maakt niet uit dat je lang niet hebt geupload je hebt weer een leuke video geplaats
Bedankt, leuk om te horen!!
I like the light brown tent of the Canadian helmets, WW2.
and good job!
Excellent video, great to have you back again. Congratulations on your new found happiness, best wishes from the UK👍👍
Good job! I'm always amazed at how much the models I have worked on change and actually look like they are real with a good weathering job.
Happy you’re back! May you have far more happy life events rather than “unfortunate” ones, my friend! Greetings and best wishes from the U.S.!👋🏼🇺🇸
i was so worried that you had lost interest in history and thank god another video is out
I'm really happy for you bro you're one of my favorite youtubers of all time you helped push my love for history with your reenactment vids
You did a Great Job with this Nick! I'm Astonished!
Welcome back nick! That’s very sweet that you’ve had a spectacular break!
Dude, really happy for you man! And no one blames you for taking a break, you’re human like the rest of us, but I’m happy you are back and I’m looking forward to watching your videos this year!
Nick glad you are back! Hope you are doing well!
Wow so happy you are in a relationship Nick! I live in the USA and we are happy that you can visit us! Keep us updated please! Your relationship is in my prayers!
Awesome restoration! I love how it turned out!
I am a novice collector and CZcamsr, you have inspired me to collect big time, and now wanting to reenact! Thank you so much!
Cheers mate! 😊
This is an awesome result, great job, M16 helmets in this paint are so cool looking. Everyone who reads this comment, have a historically correct day!🪖
Thank you so much, I appreciate it!!
I wanted to start collecting wwii stuff when i got a original Japanese type 90 infantry helmet but i wasn't sure. This guy really made me start collecting and getting bsck into WWII. Thank you
Happy for your history secret
Glad to see you back and hope things go better for you this year man.
That intro hit close to home for me since its very similar to how the past six months have been for me and my fiance. Just the inverse I guess haha. I flew from washington state to Bayern in December and officially immigrated for work here a few weeks ago. Found this video through my research on doing an impression for der erste weltkrieg, but that was to close to home for me not to comment. I really wish you all the best with you and your love, especially in times of hardship, having that love and bond is truly something fierce and amazing in life. Look forward to seeing more of your videos and who knows, might see you at a reenactment someday soon! Tschüss :)
glad your back and i’m glad you’re doing much better!
yayyy, you're back! Genuinely super happy for you and we look forward to seeing Miss History Secrets in future videos :) . And of course another brilliant restoration ;)
Great to see you back Nick. We've missed you.
I also love your World War II in World War II videos. I have watched most of them. I only need to watch like three of your videos to watch all of them.🪖🪖
That is so awesome. I am continuing to watch your video and I’m so happy for you.
Great job Nick and well worth the wait. Happy to see that you're on top of things again and I wish you all the very best for the future. Cheers from Melbourne Australia.
I love your video. I’ve been watching you for about a year now even even inspired me to even get my own German tunic. Keep up the good work, Nick.
Thank you so much, that's so awesome to hear!!
Your back!😮, super happy for you about your new partner and I hope you enjoy your time in the U.S. also would recommend Massachusetts, it’s got great museums and historical sights.
Thank you so much for all the amazing videos. Because of your videos I started collecting WW2. Because of you I was inspired me to start my own channel. Thank you and keep up the great work.
Congratulations, and wonderful to see your return.
Amazing restoration! I also have an M16 with camouflage paint. I‘m glad to see that you‘re back!
In the time you haven't uploaded much due to private life I just watched older videos like spending the night in your trench or reenactment videos. So all good happy about any video you upload!
I’ve been watching you since I was about 10 years old and I am always happy to tune into your videos glad you’re back!

Nick, I feel like you need a merch store with a shirt that has a finger with a bleeding cut on it that says: "Historically Correct!"

Nice job. Great to see you back doing videos. We can't find much in helmets here except U.S. Army. WW2, and later, although once in a while the newer Kevlar ones can be found.
