Australian army Kevlar, australian made

[AMTG]

This is the helmet that was issued to me in 1999 for deployment to East Timor.

nice to see that you able to hold on to your helmet. this type of helmet are Australian made I see NSW on the label. I think the Kevlar are getting fazed out now?

I held onto it after Timor, then was issued the next gen one for Iraq in 2005.... I handed that one in and this one was somehow not on my Q record, so when I got out, I officially didn't have a Kevlar to hand in, and I kinda forgot to tell them I did.....funny how things like that slip your mind

well why not I think you earned it.
