There is no confusion here! The East German M54 was a completely different design.
It's quite simple: In 1954, there were two "M54" Stalhelm's. One created by East Germany, and one created by West Germany. These were two completely different helmet designs made in the same year.
I hope I cleared that up a bit!
There was surprisingly two M54 helmets during the Cold War! One by West Germany and the other by East Germany. The one by West Germany repeated the WW2 M35 design and was worn by the Bundesgrenzschutz (Border Police), while the East Germans created a more compact and squished design that was still similar in design, which was worn by the KVP and the Volkspolizei Bereitschaftspolizei (Riot Police).
