Vital discovery for the Military-Face Shields as Brain shields

New discovery on Face Shields can protect military men by protecting their brain. New reports show how a face shield can protect your face as well as your brain. It turns out that a roadside bomb can alter an unprotected face and brain by the pressure and "shear waves". Recently, MIT's rocket scientist and a military brain expert teamed up and discovered that a face shield reduces the "blast waves". Reports by simulation and tests indicate that the waves can pass through soft tissued skin and pass directly to the brain. When they simulated a face shield, some of the stress waves that typically hurt the brain were diminished. This could prove helpful to U.S. soldiers by protecting them more than an ordinary helmet. I believe this breakthrough could help protect U.S. soldiers from serious damage to the brain.
