Kent County Constabulary kept this name until the 1990s, when it changed its name to Kent Police, the last British force to keep the word "county" in its official title. Although still unpopular with many residents of Kent, the change was necessary as the large number of visitors coming through the channel tunnel and the ports would understand the word "Police" more readily than "Constabulary". This is a very good, male Constable's / Sergeant's helmet of the pre 1990's Kent Constabulary. It has a blue serge 2 panel blue body, with a chromed rose boss and a Kent Constabulary Queen’s Crown (QE II) helmet plate with red enamel centre.
