19 March 2024 Garand Picture of the Day

[Sapper740]

I remember having my hair deliberately short in hot weather so I could wash my head in a helmet full of water...long ago now.

Always a No. 2 for me too. Remember when we went to Kevlar helmets and were told to stop using our helmets for wash basins and cooking pots?

when we went to Kevlar

I do remember getting mine issued down here at NAVY stores in Esquimalt. By then I was doing reserve battle school and out of the battalion line so I never got that warning... I just didn't do it. wouldn't work any more anyway...
