When the recruits returned to their barracks on Friday afternoon, they all received the REX badge bearing the King’s monogram. For Isabella, the insignia has an additional family connection, the sovereign whose symbol appears on her uniform is also her father.

The palace’s announcement emphasized that Isabella completed the exercise alongside the other conscripts, with the entire group receiving their badges upon their return.

Isabella began her military service on August 3 and is undertaking an 11-month program, according to the royal household. With the REX exercise behind her, she has reached a notable point in a commitment that still has several months to go.
