To let some fresh air in? Why did John took off his helmet at the end of Halo CE, ask yourself that.
Why would Carter need fresh air while being shot down in a Pelican?
Why would 6 need fresh air while being shot by Elites?
Most of the times they took off their helmets outside of combat. Six took off his/her helmet because it was already broken on the visor, so no use for it.
And as for Carter, one would think that he'd take off his helmet to not be so bothered, I mean, in most movies when somebody is mortally wounded or something, they always get their helmets taken off, meh.This, also both Six and Carter knew they were gonna die. Carter was (a) mortally wounded (b) in an aircraft at low altitude, and Six was going on a last stand, and would then obviously discard his broken helmet.
As far as other times (namely, the end of New Alexandria) remember that they were in a heavily-monitored area where Covies were almost certainly tapping/jamming the comms. It makes sense.
