Description
Description
Instituted in 1951. In silvered bronze, measuring 40.3 mm (w) x 47.2 mm (h) inclusive of its ball suspension, silvered bronze wreathed sword clasp inscribed ""KOREA 1950"" and bearing the number ""3"" immediately to the left, indicating three tours of duty, on its original court-mounted ribbon, marked ""KONINKLUKE BEGEER VOORSCHOTEN"" on the reverse, extremely fine.
Footnote: The Cross for Freedom and Justice was instituted on July 23, 1951, to be awarded to members of the N.D.V.N (Nederlands Detachement Verenigde Naties = Netherlands Detachment United Nations), being the Dutch contingent of United Nations forces in Korea. The N.D.V.N. was established on October 15, 1950 and an advance party of Dutch soldiers arrived in Korea from Malaya on October 24, 1950, the first of twenty-six contingents from the Netherlands arriving in early December. A total of 3,972 Dutch soldiers served in Korea, the last unit returning to the Netherlands at the end of 1954. In addition, 1,360 members of the Royal Netherlands Navy served in Korean waters aboard the destroyers Evertsen, van Galen and Piet Heim and the frigates Johan Maurits van Nassau, Dubois and van Zijll. In all, only approximately 4,000 awards were made.
This offering is a part of the "Dr. Albert Goodwin Collection", a preeminent assemblage of world Orders, Medals, and Decorations composed solely by Dr.Goodwin between 1946-1967. Dr. Goodwin had a successful career as an educator and prominent physician in New York as well as actively serving in both World Wars with the United States Medical Corps. He acted as both President and Vice-President of the Orders and Medals Society of America (OMSA) and is responsible for organizing their first convention in 1960. He maintained further membership with the American Society of Military Collectors, the International Orders Research Society, and the American Numismatic Society. His knowledge and passion for history and awards is evident in this meticulously compiled collection that is now available in its entirety for the first time exclusively on eMedals.com.
