Charles Pahud de Mortanges
Charles Ferdinand Pahud de Mortanges (13 May 1896 in 's-Gravenhage – 7 April 1971 in 's-Gravenhage) was a Dutch horse rider who competed at the 1924, 1928, 1932 and 1936 Olympics and was the flag bearer for the Netherlands in 1932. He is the only equestrian to win two consecutive Olympic titles in the individual three-day event. Besides his riding achievements, de Mortanges was president or vice president of the National Olympic Committee (1946–1961) and a member of the International Olympic Committee (1946–1964). He was also a top commanding officer of the Royal Netherlands Motorized Infantry Brigade in 1944–1945 and later a senior army official overseeing the official ceremonies involving the Dutch Royal Family.
==Early life==
De Mortanges was the son of Sophia Kol from the family of ''Bank Vlaer & Kol'' financiers and Charles Ferdinand Pahud de Mortanges, a military officer overseeing the Dutch colonies. He and his elder sister were raised by their mother, after their father died in 1903. From early ages, de Mortanges was fascinated with horse riding and military, and in 1915 was accepted to the Royal Military Academy. After graduating with honors on 12 August 1918 he was assigned to The Hague regimen, where in 1919 he became a horse riding instructor. In 1922 he was noticed by K.F. Quarles van Ufford who headed the sports section of the Dutch military. Van Ufford became his mentor and enlisted him to the riding school of the Dutch cavalry in Amersfoort, where de Mortanges later worked as instructor between July 1925 and October 1927. In 1924 he was selected for the national Olympic team.
