Hello, my name is François. I am from France (Metz) but in 1914 I would habe been german because at that time Alsace-Lorraine belonged to "Deutsches Reich". I'm glad to part of this forum.
I am interested in infantery and artillery Pickelhauben and especially in helmet covers (Uberzug). Sometimes I come to prefer covers to helmets !
