Default World War I in "colour"

These pictures are either original French archives which have been digitally colourised or Tournassoud colour photos (only the French used colour photography during WW1 but it was very expensive, hence the high quality photos).
Some are posted in attachments.

Why not? Such helmets were first used by Germans in the end of WWI. Even Ernst Juenger in his famous diaries "In Stahlgewittern" mentions these helmets.
