Princess Amalia promoted to corporal: this is what her training has looked like so far
Princess Amalia has been promoted to corporal. She has completed General Military Training (AMO), the basic training of the Ministry of Defence. On Friday, she received her beret: the start of her military career. Action photos of the princess during her training were also released.
Yes, the princess has only just started at Defensity College, the Ministry of Defence's working student program for university and college students. But the AMO only lasts a few weeks. Military bearing, shooting, helping your comrades, and navigating with a map and compass. It's the first introduction to military life.
This special moment was marked on Friday with a special ceremony. The 22-year-old Amalia was able to exchange her field cap for a beret with its own unit emblem. Queen Máxima, who was present on Friday in the Veluwe, will undoubtedly be proud.
