Establishment and criteria

The Mobilisation War Cross was established on 11 August 1948 by royal decree of Queen Wilhelmina.[2] Those eligible for the award include military personnel who served for at least six months between 6 April 1939 – 20 May 1940. However, the Cross can also be awarded to non-military personnel or people who did not serve a full six months, as long as the subject performed military tasks for the Kingdom of the Netherlands.[3]

On 1 December 1992, the original royal decree was rescinded and replaced.[3]
