Plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus

Abstract

A plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus includes a helmet member formed to resemble a major portion of a helmet worn in active duty by a serviceperson. The helmet member is formed with a planar side surface vertically disposed along an axis angularly oriented relative a major longitudinal axis of the helmet member whereby a front portion of the helmet member is maintained in prominent display when the planar side surface is secured in flush contact with a planar top surface of an associated support member. A plurality of badge elements is attachable to the front portion of the helmet member and, alternately, to each of a plurality of display positions upon the support member, whereby a service history is displayable particular to a serviceperson to whom the apparatus is presented.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus comprising a formed helmet member having:
 a domic portion formed to resemble a major portion of a helmet;   an arcuate rim disposed bounding a lowermost extremity of the domic portion;   an acme disposed apically bounding an uppermost extremity of the domic portion;   a front portion disposed anteriorly upon the domic portion between the rim and the acme; and   a planar side surface disposed truncating the helmet member vertically along an axis angularly disposed relative a major longitudinal axis of the helmet member;   wherein the helmet member is attachable to a flat surface by securement of the planar side surface to a flat surface, said mounted helmet member thereby significant of the service of a particular serviceperson to whom the plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus is awarded.   
     
     
         2 . The plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising at least one badge element attachable to the front portion of the helmet member, said at least one badge element bearing insignia indicative of a service profession, body, rank, mission, or other designation appropriate to a particular person to whom the plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus is awarded. 
     
     
         3 . The plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus of  claim 2  further comprising a support member having a planar top surface to which the helmet member is attachable by flush contact effective between said planar top surface and the planar side surface of the helmet member, whereby the helmet member is securable in position in semblance of emerging from the planar top surface and oriented such that the front portion is maintained in prominent display. 
     
     
         4 . The plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus of  claim 3  further comprising and inscription plate attachable to the planar top surface in proximity to the helmet member whereby the plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus may be personalized by appropriate inscription dedicating the plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus to a particular serviceperson. 
     
     
         5 . The plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus of  claim 4  further comprising a plurality of attachable badge elements securable in each of a plurality of display positions disposed upon the planar top surface of the support member in proximity to the helmet member. 
     
     
         6 . The plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus of  claim 5  wherein the planar side surface is disposed along an axis obliquely oriented relative the major longitudinal axis of the helmet member. 
     
     
         7 . The plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus of  claim 5  wherein the helmet member further comprises a planar base surface horizontally disposed enclosing the helmet member proximal the helmet member rim. 
     
     
         8 . The plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus of  claim 7  wherein the planar base surface is additional to the helmet member and securable to enclose the helmet member proximal the helmet member rim. 
     
     
         9 . A plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus comprising:
 a formed helmet member, said helmet member comprising:
 a domic portion formed to resemble a portion of a helmet, said domic portion including:
 a rim disposed bounding a lowermost extremity of the domic portion; 
 an acme disposed bounding an uppermost extremity of the domic portion; 
 a front portion disposed anteriorly upon the domic portion between the rim and the acme; 
 
 a planar side surface disposed occupying a vertical plane disposed truncating the domic portion along an axis angularly situated relative a major longitudinal axis of the domic portion; 
 a planar base surface disposed occupying a horizontal plane normal the planar side surface, said base surface disposed enclosing the domic portion proximal the rim of said domic portion; 
   a support member having a planar top surface;   an inscription plate disposed upon the planar top surface of the support member; and   a plurality of badge elements, each of said plurality of badge elements attachable to the front portion of the domic portion of the helmet member and alternately attachable to the planar top surface of the support member in each of a plurality of display positions;   wherein the planar side surface of the helmet member is attachable flush to the planar top surface of the support member in a position to saliently display the front portion and each of the plurality of badge elements is attachable to the front portion of the helmet member and to the top surface of the support member to signify a particular award presentable to a particular person and indicative of a helmet worn, missions accomplished, and rank attained by said person to whom the plaque attachable helmet member trophy apparatus is awarded.
