During recent years VCSU has used the following sequences of helmet designs:
The first helmet design shown above had apparently been in use since at least the late 1990s. I have not received any information about earlier VCSU helmets.
*1 Uniform numerals are worn on the left side only of both designs 'B' and 'G'; the right side of each features a large "viking head" logo (as depicted below).
*2 Uniform numerals are worn on the left side only of this design; the right side has a "viking head" logo and hence looks like design 'E' above.
