And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Belgian infantry helmet with visor, 1916, World War I
That is SO Steampunk cool!! Imagine what this might look like today using lighter and tougher composite materials and a visor that gives you night vision and is shatter- and bullet-proof. If such a thing exists today, I WANT ONE!!
Gort ! Klaatu berada nikto !
