Transformers


Here's some Austrian body armour from 1918. Looks kind of silly, right? There is a reason for that.


Bam! The infantryman is now a pillbox!


A sort of mobile pillbox, even. I wonder how well that assembly would move if it didn't have any snow to slide on.

    Amazing! What's the source, can I ask? I'd love to use this for a UK museum project I'm working on.

      I found the photos on Livejournal. Sadly, no bibliography was attached.
