What is Operation Helmet?
Operation Helmet is a non-profit organization for building helmet inserts to help save our troops' lives. Operation Helmet provides helmet upgrade kits to troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as to those ordered to deploy in the near future. These Helmet Upgrades do three primary things:
- Protection: Shock-absorbing pads keep the helmet from slapping the skull when hit with blast forces, fragments, or being tumbled along the ground or inside a vehicle. This decreases the chance of brain injury from bombs, RPG's, vehicle accidents, falls, etc.
- Comfort: If it is comfortable, it will stay on troops' heads longer and more often.
- Stability: Keeps the helmet firmly on the head and out of the eyes.
