Fellow Forum Members,
Looking for your some advice.
I wil be moving from Europe to Hawaii this Summer and am contemplating how to move my collection. While I am quite allright packing away steel helmets, field gear etc for the movers to take care of, my pickelhaubes are another matter. I am not so sure I am willing to entrust my helmets to them unless I pack them myself and hide them within other boxes. A real concern is that my belongings will be repacked and my helmets will "disappear" during repackinging, something that happens way too often in military moves. I could also ship it via mail to Hawaii or to to the homestead and let my Dad enjoy it for the next three years.
Another concern is taking the collection to the climate in Hawaii. I do think I will be moving into a climate controlled house and can always get a humidifier/de-humnidifier as necessary.
Any suggestion or advice is much appreciated.
