When Admiral Halsey visits with Marines on Guadalcanal, they wear camouflage covers on their helmets. In fact, those covers were not in use on Guadalcanal, and Marines there wore bare M1 helmets. A few may have worn burlap as a helmet cover, a practice picked up from Marine Raiders. But camouflage covers of the kind used in the movie were not present on Guadalcanal.
