Originated from iron pot

Modern helmets were born in World War I. One day in 1914, a French cook put an iron pot on his head when he was shelled by the German army, so he was only slightly injured, while many others died from heavy artillery fire.

General Adrian of the French army was deeply inspired when he learned about this. He asked the army to develop metal Helmet 。 Later, people called the standard helmets of the French army "Adrian Helmets".

After the First World War, the armies of many countries followed the example of the French army and successively produced side by side standard helmets.
