I recall a Grenada story about a US Marine taking a 5.45 or 7.62 mm
Soviet slug from an AK series weapon IN THE FOREHEAD. He had his
Kevlar helmet on. It gave him wicked whiplash (so he was 'casualtied'
for weeks) but he survived without injury otherwise. And he still has
the bullet. (Or maybe this is urban myth...)

I've talked to people that handled the helmet.
