German Helmet

The German helmet was a nice touch. Too bad it was a World War II German helmet (Model 1935) as opposed to a World War I version (Model 1917/18). The WWI version had large lugs on the side and the helmet was largely than the WWII version.

Small nitpick but it is so easy to find a decent replica today!

The one Otto Walker wasn't even that type of helmet . It was a German pioneers cork and leather crash helmet http://static1.squarespace.com/static/532fae45e4b0c530c24b888a/t/56cd156827d4bddd6eb6f5c8/1456280952297/?format=750w
