The Albert helmet is the current ceremonial headgear of the British Army's Household Cavalry. It was introduced by Prince Albert in 1842 and adopted by the Household Cavalry the following year. In 1847 the helmet was introduced to all heavy cavalry regiments. It remains in use as the full dress headgear of the two remaining Household Cavalry regiments, the Blues and Royals and the Life Guards. The helmet is also used by several Canadian Army cavalry units as their full dress headgear.
