Hmm, interesting, it's been ages since I read the book but I remember thinking it was very different from the film...

Maybe you could include a section called "Starship Troopers, the helmets" seeing as they seem to turn up in a few other series - I think some troops in Babylon 5 or Crusade wore Starship Troopers helmets and/or armour, as did the Alliance troopers in Firefly... some discussion about it on this page - http://theminiaturespage.com/boards/msg.mv?id=191970

By the way, the third and final part of the Yes song "Starship Trooper" is actually called "Würm", with an umlaut on the "u"
