I think it would be fun to wear a Uhlan tunic!Getting the medals,pin them in its designated spots (the Prussian pilots badge below the cross),throw in a wound badge (I did almost bust my head open at recess in Sep 2001,the stitches were pure misery!).I already have a replica Pour Le Merite.
By the time I get the complete uniform set,I would be in the average age of a pilot in WWI.As a matter of fact,if I was born in 1893 instead of 1993 then MVR would have been a year older than me
