1. Gas masks? Why not field shovels while we’re at it?

2. The thought of someone leaking silly pics of me and the boys almost 90 years after they were taken makes me shiver

3. That wasn’t a joke. These were standard Hungarian military uniforms of the time. Light, cost effective, and strikes fear into the enemy when charging.

4. if those were their gas masks, they’re really lucky there was no widespread chemical warfare

   they’re shovels

5. I know whose side they were on. Do you?

6. It’s not all work in war. Even those crazy Nazi Hungarians tried to keep it light.

7. they may be confused but they have the spirit!

8. These are shovels.

16. Half Ruzzian anyhow 👎💩

17. They’re all hung, but are they also arian?

18. They look quite fit.

19. The one on the far right looks very similar to Orban (possibly grandfather), so Orban was not invited by the dictator Putin on May 9, most likely.
