Drager DM40, 1970.
|
The Drager company was founded in Lubeck Germany in 1889. The German Navy used (and still uses) Drager helmets. These hats all have a white synthetic lacker inside and out. The reasons for this ? * Easy maintenance; * A good chance to see the diver underwater; * A good protection against the sea salt; * Most of all: to prevent the helmet and the diver from a short circuit that could occur during underwater welding jobs (holes burning into the helmet).
