The Models and Types of War Helmets at Museum

Of all the models and types of helmets, most of the liners, chinstraps and straps use the American M1 helmet model. M76 in Indonesia is unique, namely its diversity. You could say the motto Bhinneka Tunggal Ika applies to this helmet. Diversification applies apart from the color of the helmet and chinstrap as well as the liner. From brown, green, to black. There are also various types of https://www.thelibbymuseum.org/ chinstraps that hold the chin, from those that are cup-shaped, straps around the chin, straps that are not on the chin, to straps that cannot be adjusted in length.

Speaking of materials, non-Koreans call it Corlon. The name is honestly confusing. Why the M76 was made of this material was due to Han’s own encouragement. At that time Han commented that if even a steel helmet was penetrated by bullets, why not make a lighter helmet.

For the two generals, these troops could have a chance to fight if only their courage did not shrink when they faced the opponent’s first salvo. However, the Dutch-French general witnessed that most of the personnel had just been taken from their domestic jobs. In other words, these troops were only militia troops recruited from villages around Surakarta. In addition, the personnel were forced to join. As a result, the opportunity for the two generals to bring troops into the glory of war is getting smaller.

Aden’s climate is hot and scorching, and the city’s conditions are not pleasant either. Don’t know the other part because I didn’t see it. Back to the boat ride together with the students who will also return to the ship “Australia”. Around 2 pm the ship was ready to continue its journey, now heading for Indonesia. Not long after, the ship departed, followed by the “Australian” ship which just arrived outside the port. The ship turned east, “Australia” turned west. Until tonight the sea was very good, not rocking at all. Hopefully this will last until it arrives in Jakarta. Even though the condition of the ship was calm, the feelings of the passengers were not calm, they were quite tense.
