Talk:Pith helmet

Why do they call it that?
I think they call it a pith helmet 'cause sometimes it's necessary to pith in it. Kris (talk) 20:47, July 30, 2010 (UTC)

I don't get it, why doesn't the damn image want to work? Kris (talk) 21:06, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

Talking of the image, can't we get a bigger, more zoomed in one so me can see the helmet and not just a funny lil' man. 21:17, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

The image seems to work now - maybe it was just something on my end making it not show up, 'cause my revert of my last edit is still the last edit, and it wasn't working for me even after that. IDK sometimes my internet acts funny, only had Clear for a month now. Not even that long, like 2 weeks. Kris (talk) 22:13, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

was that my image lol i have a bigger one i made that small to fit in box also i think they call it a pith helmet cause when you flip it over its like a pit with a rim in ww1 the brittish sometimes drank out of him and i think they sometimes used them as latrins

World war I
is it just me who think it look lil a british WWI helmet

No offence meant but I think you might be confusing the pith helmet with the 'Helmet, steel, Mk I'. I think the Americans called it a 'Brodie helmet'. It is different to a pith helmet though. GreyMullen 01:44, October 20, 2010 (UTC) GreyMullen
