| Tribunus Laticlavius | We only wore our helmets when we jumped from the plane, after that we dumped them and wore our berets. We found that they would keep the rain out as much as our helmets would, and most shrapnel and bullets would go through the helmets, so we elected for comfort in the desert rather than have your head in an oven
