Belgian soldiers receive 67-year-old hats

Belgian soldiers who take part in the NATO operation Forward Presence in Estonia in January have to do with hats that date from the Korean War.

NATO has sent troops to the Baltic states as a signal to Russia for a number of years. In mid-January a contingent of 270 Belgian soldiers will also go to Estonia, where it can be-40 degrees in winter.

Many soldiers would have bought protective clothing themselves.
