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!

It's a 'short-timer' calender showing how long he has left in service (Nam reference).
I don't have any pics sorry.

Thanks guys. Got those pix Willie from the archive. Still can't make out the words or abbreviations of the months. I think july is the last month that is on his helmet. That one isn't crossed off.

This was the compilation of the best images I could find when working on some things a while back

I don't know that there is a definitive hi-res image out there.

If you have the bluRay the best shot of it I am aware of is the sequence around the "Its reading right man!" scene.

Being there's 12 boxes...my thought was months. And to me, the last box looks like 'July'.

It'll take some legwork, but you can go through these hi-res screen shots from the Blu-ray:

If you scroll along the filmstrip at the bottom, you can pick which frame you'd like to see and it will blow up at a larger size - so you'll get shots like this:

Didn't he say something along the line, "I'm short man! 4 weeks and I'm out, 4 weeks!" so one month left.
