Last event I did the Soviets wanted money just to turn up. Cue sound of Lenin spinning and Marx tearing out his hair. :roll: And which show was this?

Hiya, the beret can still be seen in photos of the 9th SS Panzer Division "Hohenstaufen" during forming up and training in 1943. Pics can be seen in the Div history book.
