The Vietnam Commemorative Helmet Series has been created by military artist, Britt Taylor Collins, to honor and pay tribute to the brave men and women that served their country in Southeast Asia during some of America's darkest hours. Only one hundred helmets will be offered, each having hand-created and designed to reflect some aspect of the Vietnam War as it related to the popular culture of the 60's. The soldiers in Vietnam turned their helmets into items of personal identity. Unit symbols, girlfriend's names, political expressions, short timer's calendars, and cultural icons all found their way drawn or painted on this piece of military gear.
