Fedayeen Saddam (“Saddam’s Men of Sacrifice”) was founded by Saddam’s eldest son Uday in 1995…Uday was a fan of the Star Wars movies, hence the resemblence to the helmet worn by Darth Vader.
This was an actual military issue for Saddam Era officers.
And it’s for sale on Ebay. For $100,000!
fuck yeah, Uday was a dick, but this is cool. lol they killed his ass
FAROUK, I AM YOUR FATHER
I’m sorry but $100,000, really? thats just crazy.
I’m glad this gear worked out so well for them.
So they redesigned Nazi helmets? Way to fail there, Uday.
Of course the great irony here is that Vaders helm is modeled after the Nazi WWII Nazi Germany stahlhelm. Funny how these things work.
Though to be honest, I must admit that the Germans did have a great sense of style.
