Cairns, Hugh William Bell,
B.P.C. 42/131
The Committee on Body Armour and Steel Helmets agrees that the American steel helmet provides a greater area of cover than the Mark III steel helmet. Significant drawbacks exist, however. These objections should be considered, and the possibility for alterations in design discussed. Attached is a letter from H.W.B. Cairns [SZ/OEMU/19/3/36], and report B.P.C. 42/131(a) [SZ/OEMU/19/3/37]. An amendment of this item can be found at [SZ/OEMU/19/3/38, B.P.C. 42/131 amended].
