The German army’s “spiked helmet” or pickelhaube is arguably one of the most enduring symbols of the First World War. The polished black leather helmet with ornamental metal spike on top did very little to protect the wearer from bullets or shell fragments, but it was instantly recognizable by friend and foe alike.
