Today 05 July 2021 marks one year since our collecting friend Karel's (Adler) horribly unexpected death.
I will always be frustrated that my wife Gael and were only weeks from meeting Karel and Marina in Belgium. Now it is too late.
Karel told me many times his favourite Pickelhaube was his Leib-Husaren Pelzmütze. In his honour, I will post his Pelzmütze and then mine. It frustrates me very much that I never had an opportunity to show my example to him, in a tragic twist of Irony I was waiting to reveal it to him as a surprise, but foolishly waited to long.
Karel liked American bourbon as do I, so tonight I will raise a glass and toast to his memory, wherever he is. I will never forget him.
