Secrete (helmet)
The secrete or secret, a French term adopted into English usage, was a type of helmet designed to be concealed beneath a hat.
==Usage==
In the 17th century, cavalrymen, especially fashion-conscious members of the gentry or aristocracy, who wished to wear fashionable broad-brimmed felt hats, but also retain some level of protection for the head, would employ a hidden helmet called a ''secrete''. This type of helmet could also be worn by civilians, including some of the judges at Charles I's trial, who believed that their safety was threatened. The existence of a large number of ''secrete'' helmets of a very similar type all stored together in the Tower of London suggests that they were occasionally issued to troops as a uniform piece of military equipment.〔Tincey, p. 46〕〔Bull, p. 118〕
