+===Origin/meaning===
+The Badge is based on the arms of Witte de With (1599-1658), Vice-Admiral of the Maas Admirality. He distinguished himself in Battles against the Dunkrik Pirates and the Portuguese, and in the First Anglo-Dutch War. He lost his life in the Battle of the Sound on 8 November 1658. The Badge was approved on 30 September 1975.
