The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Horrocks's USCM Helmet Modification

We've all had that problem with the earpiece/earflap flopping around. And I think I've got the simplest fix to it yet. No tools or trips to the hardware store for this Marine!

I used a USMC "Boot Band" and fed it between the helmet and the earflap's strap, then looped the hooks around the liner mounts, connecting back to the boot band.

I get a super cheap, "field expedient" fix to the flappy earpiece that is completely just finessing a boot band into place.

I did something similar to my old helmet with a piece of elastic.
