When Dracula got drafted

Via Robert Avrech's Seraphic Secret blog: check out this photo of Lt. Bela Lugosi, of the Austro-Hungarian army during WWI.

Is it just me, or does he look really like Ralph Fiennes in that picture?

Yeah, he does, a little.

I was reading his Wiki entry. He apparently received several "wound" medals for service on the Russian front.

Lt. Lugosi to Russian soldier: Surrender!

Russian soldier: Bite me!

Lt. Lugosi: S-a-y...that gives me an idea...
