Good. Made for the battlefield.

Kevlar kicks some serious tail but lets not call it an Army helmet.

My crazed, wacked out, roomate marine wears one when we go to the shooting range.

A great, versatile piece of headgear. I'm not sure about the current issue Kevlar Fritz helmet, but I was intimately acquainted with the earlier style GI pot. It was heavy, and usually hot (except, of course, when it was too cold!); It did have many positive attributes, however (in addition to its primary purpose of providing protection for your head). It really was useful as a cooking utensil in a pinch; it was pretty good as a washbasin; in an emergency, you could use it as an entrenching tool (or at least as a scraping tool); and, hard as it may be to believe, it made a halfway decent pillow when you were totally exhausted.

To me, this is a symbol of the service men and women who are out risking their lives in defense of their country.
