For the 1982 TAM Leeuwarden introduced the Frisian tail band. The The Hague General Staff disapproved this due to fear for an "flag incident" and other far-fetched reasons. By staff order the bands had to be removed (and reappeared in 1988). This photo is copyright © Joop de Groot, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
