Hehheh. Funny bit. For some reason British actors play Nazis the best.

Well, the Totenkopf (deathshead) has a long history beginning with the Prussians.

Frankly, I always thought the big one General August von Mackensen wore on occasion in WWI put the wimpy SS ones to shame.

That von Mackensen - hat is pretty serious, it would make an interesting fashion statement.
