The helmet also features a small black spade on the side to honor the 101st Airborne Division, which fought in the Battle of the Bulge


My grandpa fought in this. Pretty cool to see it honored.

Then he is a bad man. There aren't many of these guys left. I close family friend that walked across Europe and fought in the Battle of the Bulge passed away just this year.

There is a great Showtime doc that has been airing this week called Game of Honor, in which they followed both teams for the entire season leading up to the game last year. I fought back tears towards the end when they are interviewing the parents. Really cool stuff.
