My Helmet - Inspired by Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket

When I deployed to Kuwait in 2011, I decided to adorn my own helmet with a homage to Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket, in which Matthew Modine's character, "Joker" had the phrase "Born to Kill" written on his helmet.

I still have that same helmet here with me in Korea. I'll most likely keep the ACU cloth cover as a keep sake after I get out of the army.


From the movie poster.

And my helmet.
