See the way some soldiers made the war their own. 


After World War II, America's conflicts overseas have involved guerilla warfare and smaller battlefields. As a result, uniform standards have been relaxed, and starting in Vietnam, soldiers felt free to modify their fit.


Helmets appeared with brutal or hilarious messages, ways to intimidate the enemy, or represent their platoon while showcasing their personality. 


Here are some fighting men who took it upon themselves to make a fashion statement on the battlefield.
