I began collecting World War 1 militaria in November of 2010, although it was inspired by one piece which I obtained as a child many years ago - a helmet from a soldier of Lord Strathcona's Horse. I am always on the lookout for anything from the Great War era. I have focused my collection on medical items of the Great War.
