dedehansen Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Hi Gentlemen, recently I was able to aquire the estate from a Dutch paratrooper beginning with the Dutch East Indies then Korea and then probably Koninklijke Landmacht. Now I´m trying to research the estate continuing with a red lanyard / fourragere. I couldn´t find something about regulations on awarding or carrying. I appreciate any help.

Herman Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) The lanyard you show is a faded red coloured lanyard. There was an Orange Lanyard but this was much more simple. Below an example of the orange lanyard. The red lanyard you show was and still is given today in the Dutch Army mainly to NCO's for merit shown over a longer period. It is worn on the left shoulder of the dress uniform. Regards Herman Edited January 28, 2023 by Herman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dedehansen Posted January 29, 2023 Author Share Posted January 29, 2023 Hi Herman, many thanks for the identification and explanation about the red lanyard. I could only find one Photo on www from a Dutch veteran wearing this lanyard on a civil suit, unfortunately without further informations.
