Combat Vehicle Crewman's Helmet Survey

Abstract

The survey showed that the Combat Vehicle Crewman needs a serviceable helmet - free from continued maintenance problems and logistic breakdowns that interfere with availability of replacement parts. Durability is a major concern of the Crewman and will be addressed in the on-going research and development program. The logistics breakdown and maintenance problems will be addressed at a proposed conference with the Defense Personnel Support Center, Defense Logistics Agency, US Army Troop Support and Aviation Materiel Readiness Command, and the US Army Materials Systems Analysis Activity. One method for improving accessibility to helmet components and maintenance procedures is to initiate and publish a separate manual for the CVC Helmet that would address the maintenance program, identify individual components by stock numbers, and provide the user a servicing program to keep his helmet serviceable at the unit level.
