DEnd of the Dutch Submarine Service 		Jolly Roger

 

On July 14th 2005 the Dutch Submarine Service (and the Mine Service) have seized to exist as seperate services within the Royal Netherlands Navy. The Cdt of the Submarine Service has handed over the Submarine Service Banner to the CZMNED (Cdt. Naval Forces Netherlands). From now on the Dutch submarines will form a group within the navy, instead of an independant branch/service with own administration and support.
The submarines will now be represented in the navy by a so called "groepsoudste" (group senior / group commander).
During the ceremoy the Cdt Submarine Service P. de Harder handed over the Submarine Service Banner to CZMNED Vice Admiral J.W. Kelder.
