Newsflash... most of the premiere armies in the world/SFs/HRUs now use
a "Fritz-type" helmet. I can buy one at any local Army/Navy surplus
store.
BTW, the German IDZ soldiers in the Balkans are already wearing the
new "titan" helmets... and they look great. I wouldn't mind owning one
at all

Teuton, once again your powers of perception have let you down. Not ONE current
kevlar helmet looks like any variation of the steel pots ever worn by the
Germans. Even if they did what does that prove? I have several German helmets
going back to WW1 in my collection along with a U.S.current issue. There isn't
a comparison.

Once again you are grasping at straws in an attempt to prove your country won
anything in WW2. What you did win was an improved standard of living courtesy
of the U.S. Britain and France.
