The liner might be made from urine-tanned leather, too.

I'm sure by 'gay' you mean 'happy' or 'joyful' and don't intend it as an insult... right? And I do agree, a blue helmet, under the right circumstances might make me feel gay (especially if it was a mixed male / female unit) ... so...
Not all Pickelhaube were black. Take a look at the 'National Police' in Joe's article:

Floyd Tubbs had one of these.
