Subject: The latest in Egyptian battle helmet technology

A late post and certainly not my creation, not sure who deserves the attribution either






So just to explain – these are makeshift helmets made by Egyptians whilst scrapping in their current predicament. Notes are below each photograph for your guidance.
Your classic 1979 ‘Tribottle rag’ helmet – a must-have in any type of combat
A late '80s ‘boxhat’. The bloke next to him doesn’t appear too sure of its effectiveness
A renaissance period piece of brickwear teamed with a black and cream scarf. A classic.
I'm not sure that the tuna sandwich he is about to lob is going to cause too much destruction. Old skool '80s broken bin helmet. I personally love the fact he needs to lift it up to see – does he spend the rest of the time walking into things?
Textbook saucepan-and-life jacket combo with luxury chinstrap.
I literally have no idea what this is.
And the winner, by a mile: This bloke is going to war with 2 baguettes strapped to his ears and a ham salad sandwich cello-taped to his forehead.
