Marco Kroon (born 15 July 1970 in 's-Hertogenbosch) is a major in the Royal Netherlands Army and one of only three living knights of the Military Order of William - the Netherlands' highest military decoration. He was the first person admitted to the order in more than half a century, recognised for his conduct during deployments in Afghanistan and Iraq. Beyond active service, he works as a speaker on leadership and resilience, and serves as Ambassador for Veterans' Affairs within the Royal Netherlands Army.
Kroon, as Ambassador for Veterans Affairs of the Royal Netherlands Army, posted a public statement on the organization of the Dutch Veterans Day 2026, in which he advocated for greater recognition of the resilience of veterans.
EW Magazine published an extensive interview with Kroon in December 2025, in which he reflects on a year full of public attention.
The Public Prosecution Service discontinued the case against Kroon due to his intervention at a pro-Palestine demonstration during the Liberation Day commemoration in Wageningen on 5 May 2025.
Kroon was summoned for questioning by the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee after five demonstrators filed a complaint for assault following his intervention in Wageningen.
Panorama published an interview with Kroon in May 2025 about self-reliance and resilience of Dutch society.
