1 month ago Reply Anonymous Before 1918 yes, along with wool campaign covers, but not after WW1. They are pretty damn good hats.
no
Ballistic kevlar that shape would be pretty cool.
yes
those are brits, did Americans ever use them in combat?
Ask properly. You just asked if pith helmets were ever used in combat
Read the thread subject you double-moron
Maybe because they were surprised and didn't grab helmets
Seabees did in WW2 and I'm sure other support units may have
Probably? They're not meant for combat.
someone photoshop this face onto the VC in a hole clutching an SKS

Pith helmets are so damn aesthetic.
Comb the desert!
is that shit plastic?
Yeah, new ones are plastic unfortunately
how weird, a regular boonie cap seems like a better option.
USMC sun helmets used to be so classy. What went wrong?
USMC Pith Helmet or USMC Ushanka?
