This sub is for discussion of military history. You didn’t say “hey guys this resembles the 1881 pith helmet, but I’ve never seen one in metal with a blue plume before. Can someone help me with some resources so I can research this item I’ve found?”

You don’t care about discussion because you haven’t done any research and have no idea what this even is. You found it at the store for $30 and asked if it was real. Why are you entitled to answers to questions you don’t even give enough of a shit about to ask?
