Those helmets are really old though. Army was using the kevlar "fritz" by 1983.

What are these troops wearing?
The helmet was adopted in 1983 all units didn't get them at once. www.latinamericanstudies.org/grenada-2.htm

[@artillerydan]

First HMMWVs were delivered in 1984-85. with everything else it is probably 1985 or 86

[@Imprudentman]

@psifactor12 I think yes. to the end in sight to keep that bastard - I'm kidding.

[@randomraindeer]

@TheBulitt excactly :P... it's just amusing how they have insisted on calling it that, to make it sound really advanced xD... ofc, you couldn't do that today, considering that most people actually know what a CPU is :D

[@iknowsstuff]

Would be kinda nice if we were less interested in killing each other, but still impressive
