Many of us don't wear helmets, and its a dangerous thing. The use of helmets reduce the risk of a life threatening injury, yet they weigh too much, are bulky, and often get in our way when we're trying to look around. Special Forces started using ballistic "base jump" helmets as a means to get around this and address the problems. Their cost was nearly a thousand dollars! That's way outside my price range! I'm happy to have found Hoplite's ACH/MICH IIIA helmets at a much more reasonable price. The price is very reasonable and have lots of options for you! They weigh in at 2.

Greetings my name is Jay. I was medically retired from the Army in 2015. I served from 1997 to 2015, I served with the 2nd Ranger Batt and 75th Ranger Reg HQ. When I made E5 I went to SFAS and was selected. I served with the 3rd and 7th SFG. I have training as an EOD tech, sniper, and medic. I have fought in Bosnia, Africa, Afghanistan, and Iraq. I want to find a unit that has a need for my skill set.

Maj. Gen. Sidney Shachnow survived three years in a Nazi concentration camp, he deployed twice to the jungles of Vietnam and he was the top U.S. Army officer in Berlin at the end of the Cold War. Along the way, the general became a legendary Special Forces officer, revered by many in the close-knit community of Green Berets. http://www.fayobserver.com/news/20181002/maj-gen-sidney-shachnow-special-forces-legend-holocaust-survivor-has-died
