Trivia

  • A Template:W (鉢巻, lit. "helmet-scarf") is a stylized headband in Japanese culture, usually made of red or white cloth. It was worn as a symbol of perseverance or effort by the wearer. Japanese kamikaze pilots in World War II would often wear hachimakis before flying to their deaths.
  • The design features the red star of Communism from the Template:W, a major plot point in Homefront.
  • The game Homefront is a semi-remake of the movie Template:W, except that the Template:W-era Russians and Cubans who invade the United States have been replaced by North Koreans. Both Homefront and Red Dawn were co-written by director-producer Template:W.
