This peace-enforcement force entered Kosovo on June 12, 1999 under a United Nations mandate, two days after the adoption of UN Security Council Resolution 1244. While continuing to maintain and develop a climate of safety and security, KFOR is also here to support the United Nations Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK). UNMIK and KFOR work together in promoting the transfer of increased responsibility to civil authorities, in order to facilitate the withdrawal from large-scale framework operations in Kosovo. KFOR contingents are grouped into four multinational brigades. Although the brigades are responsible for specific area’s of operations, they all fall under the single chain of command of Commander Kosovo Force (COMKFOR). This means that all national contingents pursue the same objective, which is to maintain a safe and secure environment in Kosovo. They do so with professionalism and in an even-handed manner towards all ethnic groups. KFOR troops come from more than 34 nations - NATO and Non-NATO. 3 Sep. 1, 2005 www.nato.int/kfor KFOR CHRONICLE HQ KFOR - FILM CITY HQ KFOR - FILM CITY 4 Sep. 1, 2005 www.nato.int/kfor KFOR CHRONICLE PPAARRAADDEE OOVVEERRVVIIEEWW A French Foreign Legion Band B Multinational Brigade Southwest, Prizren Brigadier General Norbert Stier, GE C Multinational Brigade Northeast, Novo Selo Brigadier General Philippe Tracqui, FR D Multinational Brigade East, Bondsteel Brigadier General John Harrel, US E Multinational Brigade Center, Lipjan Colonel Alesv Vodenahl, CZ F Multinational Specialized Unit, Pristina Colonel Flavio Garello, IT G Kosovo Tactical Maneuver Battalion, Pristina Lieutenant Colonel Carlos Beleza, PO H Hungarian Guards, HQ KFOR Captain Barnabas Bartok, HU I Headquarters Kosovo Force Brigadier General Reinhard Wolski, GE I Headquarters Kosovo Force Brigadier General Jose Prieto, SP J Chief of Staff Kosovo Force Brigadier General Joseph Orr, US 5 Sep. 1, 2005 www.nato.int/kfor KFOR CHRONICLE Since 1831, the French Foreign The Foreign Legion's march: le Legion has been a unique and Boudin distinguished unit within the French Army.

  • May 2010 to Be People-Oriented "Pastoral Care with a Face", Nicely Describes What I Would Define As Being a People-Oriented Chaplain
    One of the great benefits of participating in the KFOR mission is the opportunity to interact with Soldiers of many nations. During my time in Kosovo, we have transformed from Task Force - East to a Battle Group East. While both of these titles were preceded by "Multinational," this has not been the case at the headquarters until just recently. MNBG E headquarters now has a true multinational leadership staff. Maj. Andrzej Glowacki, of Poland, is now the Assistant Deputy Commander Maneuver under U.S. Col. Robert Fode. Capt. Tomasz Golis, of Poland, will serve as Assistant Chief of Operations for the Joint Operations Center under U.S. Maj. Brad Brown. Soldiers from Greece, Poland, Romania, Turkey and Ukraine will also be assuming positions of responsibility on the headquarters staff. With the addition of Turkey in March, units in MNBG E now include KFOR peacekeepers from Turkey, Greece, Poland, Romania, Ukraine, Armenia and the United States. As part of the new partnership, Turkish, Polish, and Greek Soldiers will be traveling to the U.S. to provide a multinational training environment for the next rotation of U.S. Soldiers preparing for their role in supporting KFOR. This multinational training will make for a seamless transition to U.S. KFOR 13 later this summer. With the move to Deterrent Presence phase of KFOR, we have also increased the opportunities to work with other Battle Group headquarters and Soldiers across Kosovo. This has been a rewarding experience, and we have learned and benefitted from each of those encounters. At Camp Bondsteel, Battle Group East Soldiers have recently welcomed troops from Hungary and Sweden for cross- training events, familiarization patrols of the Battle Group area of operations and medical training.
