       TODAY I LEARNED that the Nazi WWII Military Symbology had a symbol for a "Cavalry Bicycle Company", which feels like the sort of thing you would only meet on the Dream Roads on the way to invade an alternate reality in a @cstross novel.(edit; I misread the Quora answer, the image with the Bicycle Cavalry is the Nazi Symbology, not NATO)
