Some Room for the Shinyo Crash Helmet Theory?
A lot of military research I do becomes like CSI work. Here is some statistics that may be construed to support the existence of a Shinyo bullet proof crash helmet.
Surrendered inventory below hints at a 20 or 40 member unit, depending on how you distribute the pistols and rifles, but the number of steel helmets is a staggering 80 pcs, which allows each member a Type 2 helmet and another, assuming a crew of 40. This number does lend some credibility to the Shinyo helmet myth.
At least they had more helmets than they usually deserved.
