The Military Helmet is an army combat helmet. It is protective gear for the head and a strong choice for fighting. The standard version wears a forest camo cover, as used by National Guard troops.
Its main strength is high cover against bites and scratches on the head. Its main cost is comfort and sight. It is uncomfortable to wear for long, and it cuts vision by a quarter.
It comes in a few looks with the same stats, including forest camo and two desert versions. The helmet is found mostly in army surplus stores, pawn shops and army storage rooms. The Tailor is the best occupation for protective gear. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The helmet sits in the Hat slot and covers the head. It stops about seven in ten bites and four in five scratches there. It adds a little warmth and keeps out some rain.
The helmet leaves running and attack speed untouched. Its costs are discomfort and a quarter off how far the wearer sees. It stays on well, with only a small chance of falling off when the wearer is hit.
The SWAT Helmet matches it in every figure. The Firefighter Helmet gives the same bite and scratch cover with more warmth, and it never falls off, but it weighs more. The Crash Helmet is much warmer and never falls off, but it also dulls hearing. The Riot Helmet stops every bite and scratch, at the cost of half the wearer's vision and some hearing.
The helmet cannot be worn with a hooded jacket, a hooded sweater, a bulky hooded jacket or anything that covers the full head. A mask, such as a hockey mask or a gas mask, still fits under it.
Variations
The Military Helmet comes in 3 versions with the same stats. Only the look changes.

Locations
Army surplus store counters and pawn shop storage give the best odds, at about one check in eight. Other containers in army surplus stores and pawn shop counters hold one about one time in twenty. Pawn shop offices and army storage rooms turn one up now and then. Survivor safehouses, army tents and army backpacks carry one only rarely.
