Thanks, Marius! I've only seen photos of that before--never video of it actually being done. Very interesting!

That YouTube can be quite an amazing place for finding all sorts of obscure stuff. A search for the most esoteric things can yield quite a plethora of choices.

Like some other personalities (churchill) he used to sort out people parade. Deitrich checks a guys helmet and he gives them a slap when putting the award on, sort of like the USA getting blood wings!
