Romanian Pickelhauben

I was in Bucharest, Romania, for a conference last week and someone took me to the military museum. A great account of military life in the Balkans, from medieval times to the communist era.

Fascinating! That green one second from the end is quite something!

That museum is on my list of places I hope to visit. I'm not sure if I have more royal blood from the Romanian side of the family or more vampire blood.

Yes indeed! Jan Kube had one for sale, not long ago.
