Thank You very much for the offer!

My last visit to France is long ago, 1995 at Dijon-Longvic. A business trip, military business, flying with the "Cigognes" squadron ... this famous air base is also history today.

Fantastic insights into the subtleties of helmet plate development. Can anyone provide details into how these details might impact field artillery and cuirassier plates of the associated versions?

Yes I could do that beginning of October as soon as I am back from my trip abroad.
