a buddy of mine were looking over his collection and the discussion came on to Mecklenburg Helmets. Generals helmets to be precise. I remembered reading, somewhere that Mecklenburg generals helmets wore white metal fittings and the Mecklenburg A la suite officers wore yellow metal fittings. The exact opposite of Prussian Generals. My buddy insisted that both Mecklenburg Generals and General a la Suite wore the exact same helmets with white metal fittings and yellow metal star. I couldn't argue but it has bugged me ever since because I remember distinctly reading about the differences in some reference. I didn't imagine it.
So can anybody tell me if they read anything about the differences, I would appreciate your help. Also, if anybody has read about the difference between the helmets, it would be very helpful if you could tell me which book or books this is mentioned in.
