    Didier,

    the insignia inside the purple boxes are Dutch.

      The medal with 'orde - vrede' (order and peace) is the 'Ereteken voor Orde en Vrede' which was given to veterans after World War II who fought in the Dutch East Indies to surpress the Indonesian 'revolt' which led to its independence in 1949. In the Netherlands this 'revolt' is known as the 'Politionele Acties' (police actions). The clasp indicates the year in which the veteran had served (the years range from 1945 to 1949, in recent years they also added 1950 and 1951).

      This is the award document (it's my grandfather's):

        On the left bottum, 2 sleeve insigna.
        The one on the top is for optical seiner and the bottom for a telephonist.

        And the red yellow metal kokarde is for the kepie.

        Nice items, if you want to get rid of it i am interested.

        (here a example of all of these)
