Rich,

Build a nice adapter cable. U229 on one side, the mate to your headset plug on the other.
The nominal earphone impedance of a typical device connected to the U-229 is about 1.k ohm. +/-
Just match the impedance of your headset to 1k and you will be fine.

I really don't like the military headsets. I do have a very nice pair of Kenwood monaural cans that I would like to hang a U-299 on. Has anyone done this before? I impedance matching aside are there any things I need to know?
