Made by ELO in 1987.
The Regiment Verbindingstroepen can be translated as the Communication Regiment.
This regiment is also called "Verbindingsdienst or Communications Service": http://www.verbindingsdienst.nl/
It is responsible for all communications within the Dutch army.
Regiment Motto: 'Nuntius Transmittendus' - 'the message must pass'
This beret came with two pins attached to it. I do not know if the little pins are allowed on a beret.
The pins look like a blue UN beret and a green Commando beret.
The Regiment has its own song:
This video shows what the communication regiment does.
