Abstract: This invention involves a device for lengthy, long-range viewing of objects (e.g. wildlife, sporting events, military activities) while permitting the viewer to view same in relative comfort because the viewing device is mounted on a headgear device. Thus, the viewing means is held still while fatigue is minimized greatly. Also, the device permits use of the hands and arms for other purposes so that frequent movement thereof is avoided. The device includes a hard hat helmet with a viewing monocular pivotally attached thereto by a resilient interconnection which is rigid enough to hold the monocular in a fixed position until manually moved and flexible enough to be readily moved into line of sight with the appropriate eye.
