Update history
October 20, 2017 Patch #1 (Jungle Inferno Update)
- The Shellmet was added to the game.
Trivia
- Helmets often seen in Vietnam had a green camo pattern, and many soldiers would strap items on top for easy access, such as the ammo and gun oil bottle shown on this cosmetic.
- Given the notorious gun jamming issues of the Vietnam War, gun oil bottles were common helmet band items.
- Smoking was common during wartime as a way to relieve stress from battle.
- All three shotgun shells have "MANN CO BALISTICS 12 GAUGE SHELL"(sic) written in them.
