Netherlands Badges Set - Cold War Era
A set of original Cold War Era Netherlands Military Beret Badge Pair – Royal Artillery & Royal Ground Forces Medical Services
The badges are exactly as photographed - what you see is what you get.
During the Cold War, the Netherlands stood on NATO's front line in Western Europe, preparing to defend against the possibility of a Warsaw Pact invasion. Every artillery battery depended on precise firepower, while military medical personnel trained to keep soldiers alive under the harshest battlefield conditions. These badges symbolize two sides of the same mission: delivering combat power and preserving the fighting force.
Both badges are very clean, making them excellent additions to a Cold War, NATO, or Dutch military collection. Whether you're a collector of European militaria, assembling a Netherlands display, or looking for authentic period insignia, this pair represents an increasingly scarce piece of twentieth-century military history.
A great opportunity to own genuine Cold War-era Dutch military insignia from an era when Europe stood ready for a conflict that, thankfully, never came.
The lot includes:
- Royal Artillery beret cap badge, complete with its original felt backing.
- Royal Ground Forces Medical Services (Koninklijke Landmacht Geneeskundige Dienst) beret cap badge.
