VM you stole my tag line!!
Back in the old days of Steel Pots, the jump versions had those pads in them, and an extra strap in the back to hold the water bucket to your brain pan, and an even more uncomfortable strap forl your chin. But, you could shave in them, boil water, dig a foxhole (sorry improved fighting position), and use it as a form for really excellent shaped / cratering charges, or even if rigged properly as an APM or platter charge. I'm not going to say how they could be used in CWx environments while trapped in a snowhole, but the other FOGs know what I mean. I kinda missed the steel pots when we went to Kevlar.
