Harlem Hellfighters in action. Here, the men of the 369th are depicted wearing the American Brodie helmet; however, after being detached and seconded to the French, they wore the Adrian helmet, while retaining the rest of their American uniform. This particular image displays the action at Séchault, France on September 29, 1918 during the Meuse-Argonne Offensive. They would have worn the American Brodie helmet at this time.
