On Friday, May 29, 2026, Queen Máxima of the Netherlands received her beret after completing the first phase of her military training as a reservist in the Royal Netherlands Army. King Willem-Alexander, Princess Amalia, and Princess Ariane attended the beret presentation ceremony at the Royal Military Academy (KMA) in Breda.
Queen Máxima is serving as a reservist attached to the Military Household of His Majesty the King, through which she is undertaking her training. She will not be assigned to a specific branch, regiment, or corps, but will instead fulfill a general and broad role within the Royal Netherlands Army. For this reason, her beret bears a lion on a ponceau-red background, also known as the insignia of the General Staff.
