I thought it was used to secure the strap on goggles. A lot of skiing helmets have something similar.
I could be wrong..

Of course they do, looking good, even in the field, is part of NSW lore.
Have you seen what your hair looks like when you take off your helmet? Just awfull!! A bit of product and and fussing and you are ready for a night on the town!!
A big part of BUD/S selection is the ability to look good no matter were you are or the circumstances you are under.
I mean, if you don't look good, what's the point?

The teams wouldn't need a new MOS (rate) for this, it's already taught in BUD/S, (hair care systems, improvised styling devices, survial blow dryer, etc..) and is part of the Trident board.
Guns, explosives, jumping out of planes is good and all, but pales in importance to lookin good.

For you maybe, but the teams wear NVG's to counter the weight of the various wax sticks and gel tins. Those things get heavy and need to be counter balanced by some weight in the front.
