these soldiers dont have helmets on , so i'm assuming your helmet can fall off . how do you now when it falls off and can you pick it back up and put it on again ?
also , in the movie , omaha level , you see 2 soldiers run by you and crouch down and at the same time hold their helmets with their left hand . i'm wondering if your helmet gets lost does this affect your chances of getting shot in the head , are you able to get shot in the helmet and survive , noticing that your helmet saved your life ?
Are those just screenshots or pictures from the movie? The thing about helmets that I didn't like from the first 2 MOH games was that when you hit somebody in the face their helmet would fall off doing no harm to them.
they look like they're from a movie . i got them from gamespy , and i have never seen them before , i think they are like really early shots of the game

Id think a bullet to your helmet would knock you out, or just give you a really bad headache LOL
/me thinks
It depends on what angle the bullet comes and hit you ... if it comes straight forward... Id think it would penetrated the helmet and of course kill you.
The real question here is -"does your helmet even fall off?"-. In MOH (PSX) it didn't, if you got shot in the head it made a metalic -clang- sound, even if it was your third time getting shot in the head.
Didn't you realise that Jimmy Patterson from first MOH is in fact a bionic cyborg sent from the planet jsdghusdyfbhsuey to eat our young?! You must be a prat if you didn't know that. That is why it made a metallic ping when ou got shot.
Fool.
Also Manon is a hairy gorilla.
Incidently the peeps from 2015 also come from jsdghusdyfbhsuey.

In most cases, the bullets that hit the helmets *usually* ended up killing or seriously wounding the soldier wearing it. The U.S. M1 "steel pot" helmet wasn't a 100% safeguard against shrapnel and bullets; granted it was better than nothing at all but it wasn't always the saving grace either.
I have put M1 rounds (.30'06) through 3/16" steel plating at 100 yards like a hot knife through butter. That was the non armor-piercing FMJ cartridges too. The old M1 helmet is much thinner than 3/16ths inches.
I will say I'd rather be wearing it than not. :-)
