Prince Maurits has been appointed today by his cousin King Willem-Alexander as his Aide-de-Camp Extraordinary. The King also appointed Prince Maurits captain-lieutenant of the Dutch Royal Navy.As Aide-de-Camp Extraordinary to the King, Prince Maurits can attend and represent His Majesty at military ceremonies. He can also have on his uniform the monogram of the King.

If I don't mistake, Maurits's fahter Pieter van Vollenhoven is/has been an Aide-de-Camp Extraordinary to Queen Beatrix.
 
Indeed, Pieter had the same position. A nice gesture of the new King to his cousin, and perhaps also to his uncle and aunt.
 
Beautiful gesture on the part of the new King! Maurits will do a wonderful job, just like his father and mother before him. Can't wait to see what else the new King has planned. Such a wonderful new adventure for us all to watch.

Prince Maurits will make a very handsome addition to the royal entourage.
 
What a clever idea with the collars.
 
Yesterday the organisation of SAIL Amsterdam announced that Prince Maurits will be the patron of the organisation. He succeeds his cousin, king Willem-Alexander, who cancelled all his patronages when he became king.

The title is Adjudant (in buitengewone dienst) and translates as Aide-de-Camp (Extraordinary).

:flowers:

The rank is Kapitein-Luitenant der Zee (In German: Fregattenkapitän) which translates as Captain-Lieutenant-at-Sea but in the Commonwealth Countries it is the equivalent of Commander.

Good to see that some of W-A's old patronages will continue to have a family member as their patron.
