Helmet attachments / "bolt-ons"
I recently revisited a list we created on Gregs old Yahoo forum...this was a list of all the things which are / can be attached to the modern combat helmet ranging from patches to cameras.
Is it complete? (for the time being at least):-
Cover
Net (not chicken / barbed wire!)
Scrim
Goggles
Glint Squares
Patches (official and “morale”)
NVG mount + strap
NVG mount – fixed
Rails (top, side etc)
Visor
Comms kit
Ear defenders
Mandible piece
Beacon / “Mockinbird”
Goggle straps (“Bunny Ears”)
Light / torch (various)
Nape Protector / Neck protector
Foliage band
Camera (Still / Video)
Training Detectors e.g. “Miles” equipment
Field dressing
Attachment hook / ring (for attaching to webbing kit when not in use)
Counter weights (and pouch) re NVG kit
Bungee cords
Inner Tube ring
Bespoke replacement liner arrangements
Edging rubber ring (commercial) - Brit
“Sniper” tape
Boonie hat brim (commercial) – US
Bespoke paint jobs (including "Jaws" on mandible pieces)
Transfers / decals / graffiti
If nothing else you can tick things off as you add them!
