1-16. CHEMICAL-PROTECTIVE HELMET COVER

 

This cover (figure 1-12) protects the personnel armor-system, ground troop (PASGT) helmet from chemical and biological contamination. The cover is a piece of butyl-coated nylon cloth gathered at the edge by an elastic web enclosed in the hem. It is an olive-green, one size-fits all cover.
