One of my former teachers posted this to Facebook earlier, was hoping someone might have some insight?

"I'm working with a wonderful Holocaust Survivor on her memoir. She mentioned that rowdy Hungarian soldiers that were on her train en route in 1945 from a DP camp to her former home, were wearing uniforms that included the tall, plumed head-gear typical of Hussars. In my research, however, I find that this head-gear wasn't worn after WWI. Was there a modified version that some might have held on to and worn for special occasions? Does anyone have any info/input on this?"

~cheers!
