Flags on helmets

[Kope]

You got some of your facts mixed up. I was in Kuwait in 1998 and we wore the Flag the same way then. The change in 2003 was merely to make servicemembers wear it permenantly. In otherwords so that they no longer had to remove it from the uniform every time they came home only to put it back on in a year or so. So you are incorrect to say that they wore it differently in Bosnia. Let me guess that you based that assumption on "Black-Hawk Down". It is unlawfull to impersonate a U.S. soldier, Hollywood has to make mitakes on uniforms and various other things.

Actually I based it on what I wore on my sleeve in bosnia, we had some of the same conversations there - but that is how my unit wore it.
