    Dutch commander cross medal to Cadets


    Recommended Posts

    Although the medals itself aren't visable, does anybody have an idea what order these men are wearing, they are the Senate of the Cadets from the Royal military academy.

    is it a Dutch order, or a special medal only carried by the senate perhaps?

    the picture is from 1952

    thanks for any help

    It's not an order nor a commander's cross.

    It's very usual for senates/councils of student associates to wear a badge as a sign that they are representing their association.

    On the site of the KMA are several pictures of the council's, all of them wearing a badge.

    e.g.

    All the members of the council are wearing a badge, the one without is the Chef du Protocol.

    From your picture, I can clearly see that all of them are wearing 2 chevrons, thus all in their second year with the rank of Corporal-Cadet (Korporaal Adelborst).

    Kind regards,
