I think it’s much more likely brush painted maybe if available or even more likely wire or scrim tied over. People are sheep too. Would only take one bloke in the platoon to do something to his helmet that looked ‘ally’ and wasn’t a stupid idea and people would go out their way to copy.

Exactly this. I was looking at the Blood and Plunder ships and boats for the same thing. I’d not seen this offering though.

Photos: Our troops first IED strike. The Warthog ensured no fatalities (a miracle).

It’s hot in Afghanistan.

Dave Beech got a bullet through the helmet, skimming his head (see stitches)

My bed space when not out on Ops. Funny to reduce one’s life and possessions to the corner of a tent.

Well my use of ‘manor’ in this instance is in the cor blimey come round my manor cockney sort of vibe. But I reside just up the road…. I would be willing to interview for the role of Duke though. That’s how it works right?
