[Regia-NA] Strong Viking Helmet

[TGS]

I forgot to say, I do think it is a very interesting idea, and certainly 
bears investigation. Although I am not persuaded at the moment that the 
resemblance isn't just a coincidence.

WWI and WWII German aviator helmets are not hard to come by, and it should 
be simple enough to sort out what they metal parts look like without taking 
it apart.

I wonder when the helmet showed up in the museum in Kiev?

Take Care,
Tom
