  • Professional Military Education and the Development of Interoperability
    Steven Paget Published in The RUSI Journal, 161:4, October 2016, pp.42-50. This is the post-print version and must not be copied or cited without permission. ‘Interoperability of the Mind’: Professional Military Education and the Development of Interoperability For a number of economic, military and political reasons, multinational operations are becoming increasingly important. As their prevalence increases, so does the significance of ensuring that partner nations are interoperable. This can be achieved in a range of ways, including standardisation in areas such as equipment and tactics, techniques and procedures. However, despite being frequently overlooked, cultural interoperability is central to the cohesion of all coalitions. As has been stated: Over and beyond the problem of linguistic communication, or the difficulties involved in harmonizing procedures, technical arrangements, etc., there remains an issue that is less easily apprehended and ought to top the agenda of military social scientists: that of cultural interoperability.1 Cultural interoperability can be grounded in a common language, a similar ethos and comparable principles. It can also be developed and enhanced through multinational exercises, personnel exchanges and liaison officers. An important avenue for developing cultural interoperability is provided by international professional military education (PME), which allows for sustained cross-cultural interaction between students and staff from a range of nations. From a military perspective, PME offers a unique environment for the frank exchange of ideas and for cultural acclimatisation, which may not be feasible during exercises or operations. Furthermore, it is a ‘safe’ option in that the exchange of classified information or defence technology can be avoided.

  • 600 (City of London) Squadron Association
    600 Praeter Sescentos “THE RIGHT OF THE LINE” 600 (City of London) Squadron RAuxAF Association Newsletter Patron: The Viscount Trenchard of Wolfeton December 2010 Editorial Welcome to another 600 Sqn Association Newsletter albeit this time from a new Editor. I have taken over from Robin Van Geene who stepped down as Editor and would like to thank Robin for all his superb efforts to date. So, as Robin reported in his first newsletter, this is also my first attempt at putting together a newsletter. I have tried to jazz things up a bit, so if things are not as you like them, please do let me know – but please do also tell me if you dont like it! The aim is to pass on all our news and details of our events in a way, which is easy to digest, informative, fun, and most importantly interesting to read. If I miss the plot occasionally, do tell me so I can correct it for next time. First, a little about me so those of you who have not met me know who I am. I joined the RAuxAF in 1997 as a raw recruit following some time in the late 70’s with 86 (Heston & Isleworth) Squadron, Air Training Corps and then the Royal Engineers in the early 80’s. I joined 1 MHU as an AC under the then OC Edna Partridge before we were “Rebadged” as 600 Sqn. I reached the lofty heights of Corporal before personal matters prompted me to “retire” early in 2002. In 2007, I assumed the role of Association Standard bearer and late 2008 was appointed committee member.
