Sort of similar to the late WW2 British mkIII helmet. link

Wow, it sure does look like it, though not as comical as the "experimental sun helmet". Thanks Dan PS. The East Germans certainly liked that high conical style, which to me also looks a little bit like a teardrop when seen from above (meaning one end a little pointier than the other): TMP link

There are a number of photos of American troops in the South Pacific in 1941-42 wearing sun helmets. They are not similar to these but more like the British WW1 style.
