bigschuss Posted August 21, 2014 #1 Posted August 21, 2014 I didn't have a lot of time to fill my ruck with souvenirs when I was in Desert Storm, but I was lucky enough to bring home an Iraqi helmet and a chunk of a Scud missile.

Awesome helmet, don't see them as complete as yours too often. Thanks for your service! Thanks. Love that SCUD fragment....very cool Yeah, this came from a much larger chunk…about the size of a piece of plywood. We had equipment to cut it into smaller pieces to take home. I also came home with dozens of smaller fragment size pieces. Gave all those away.
Garandomatic Posted September 4, 2014 #12 Posted September 4, 2014 Man, that helmet is a trip! So similar to GI.
panzer224 Posted September 4, 2014 #13 Posted September 4, 2014 This is really cool, it is one thing to be a collector buying things and it is another to bring them back yourself!
