  1. In addition to Adrian, Friedrich Schwerd and Dr. August Bier, inventors of the German Stahlhelm helmet, should also share in the honors for helping to protect soldiers from splinter wounds. I'd argue they were the most important since the design elements Stahlhelm helmet, in its many revisions, continues to be used today by most western armies. The Adrian helmet was really a technological dead end by comparison.

  2.  @TheHistoryGuyChannel  Good deal. In terms of military history, there aren't many things that have been as influential for the foot soldier as the stahlhelm.

  3.  @WALTERBROADDUS  Walter, the Swiss Army knife would be another interesting story for the History Guy to delve into.
