Nope, just a smart GI who knows better than to connect that damn thing. Imagine had his chin strap been connected, his head would still be in the helmet as it flies off...
We never wore our chin-straps in Vietnam for that very reason.

I am pretty certain it's Veins Explosions V2.
I will defer to your superior knowledge. It's great the way this game keeps throwing this little nuggets at you.
I wouldn't call it superior knowledge, just a veterans reflection on his own experience.
The American 'steel pot' was virtually useless against anything but small shrapnel, unlike the modern day kevlar version. Though to be honest when we switched to kevlar, I missed having a wash basin available at all times.

Here' a G.I. that can hold his breath for a long time while pinned.
