Navy Accepts Delivery of Future USS Gravely ® Serving the Hampton Roads Navy Family Vol. 18, No. 30, Norfolk, VA FLAGSHIPNEWS.COM July 29, 2010 Navy accepts delivery of future USS Gravely BY CHRIS JOHNSON Team Ships Public Affairs WASHINGTON — The Navy offi cially ac- cepted delivery of the future USS Gravely from Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding during a ceremony, July 26, in Pascagoula, Miss. Desig- nated DDG 107, Gravely is the 57th ship of the Arleigh Burke class. The ship successfully completed acceptance trials, June 28. Due to the oil spill currently affecting the Gulf of Mexico, the trials were slightly modifi ed, with the ship conducting pierside tests and inspections by the Navy’s Board of Inspection and Survey (INSURV), fol- lowed by a 36-hour underway period to assess the ship’s main propulsion, auxiliary, steering, damage control equipment, navigation sys- tems and deck equipment as well as overall completeness. “Though the oil spill forced us to modify our normal trial schedule, we were still able to de- liver Gravely as originally scheduled,” said Capt. Pete Lyle, DDG 51 class program man- ager in the Navy’s Program Executive Offi ce (PEO) Ships. “That is really a testament to the maturity of the class and the program’s suc- cessful history of delivering ships on time and on schedule.” Gravely is a multi-mission guided-missile Photo by MC2 Corey Truax destroyer designed to operate in multi-threat The Arleigh Burke class guided-missile destroyer USS Gravely (DDG 107) is surrounded by oil containment booms to prevent oil from the air, surface and subsurface environments.

  • Forces Spéciales : Opérations Selon Le Droit De La Guerre
    Forces spéciales : opérations selon le droit de la guerre Les forces spéciales remplissent, en uniforme, des missions que l’Etat peut revendiquer. Effectuées en toute discrétion pour des raisons opérationnelles et de sécurité, ces dernières ne sont pas « secrètes ». Leur commandant, le vice-amiral Laurent Isnard, l’a souligné devant la presse, le 22 juin 2017 à Paris, à l’occasion de leur 25ème anniversaire. Evolution des missions. Intégrateur de forces, le Commandement des opérations spéciales (COS) compte une centaine de personnes. Mais son vivier totalise près de 4.000 opérateurs et 400 réservistes, répartis dans 13 unités spéciales dépendant des armées (Terre, Air et Marine nationale), directions et services. Ces composantes se chargent du recrutement, de la formation et de la mise à disposition du matériel adapté. Le COS y prélève des effectifs en fonction de la mission et des objectifs à atteindre. Des actions commandos dans les Balkans au début, le COS est passé aux opérations plus longues, en interarmées et interalliées, en Afghanistan. Puis, dans les pays d’Afrique, il lui a fallu comprendre la situation sur place, en vue d’une appréciation nationale, lancer un engagement avec un partenaire local et l’accompagner jusqu’à ce qu’il puisse réaliser la mission seul. Pendant l’opération « Barkhane » (Sahel), le COS lutte contre le terrorisme et partage les moyens (hélicoptères notamment) avec les troupes conventionnelles, dans le cadre d’un dialogue permanent avec le Centre de planification et de conduite des opérations à Paris. Pour l’opération « Chammal » (Irak), les forces spéciales françaises ne pratiquent pas le « ciblage » de combattants, précise l’amiral Isnard.

  • Humanitarian Diplomacy and International Crisis Management
    PROGRAM Humanitarian Diplomacy and International Crisis Management INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ORDER OF MALTA UNESCO - 27TH – 28TH JANUARY 2011 PARTNER HUMANITARIAN DIPLOMACY AND INTERNATIONAL CRISIS MANAGEMENT Even if the development of relationships between NGOs, diplomats, civilians and military forces is not new, the recent concepts of “duty to interfere” and “responsibility to protect” have paved the way for what is now called “humanitarian diplomacy”. Since military operations took place in Iraq, Afghanistan, Darfur and Sahel, crisis resolution has been constantly evolving and now largely affects the relationships between military forces, diplomats and non- governmental organizations on the scene of action. As a matter of fact, the involvement of humanitarian organizations, medias, large multinational companies, private security fi rms and non-state actors on a regular basis raises the issue of having the various, State and non-State actors cohabitate, co-operate and integrate in the theatre, often with incompatible objectives. Many tasks assigned to military forces, peace enforcement tasks, humanitarian assistance, and “nation building” are now increasingly contradictory and civil populations living in affected countries are the fi rst victims of such situations, along with humanitarian workers. The challenges our world is facing, local and international armed confl icts, major pandemics, violations of human rights, major migratory movements, corruption fi ghting, terrorism and the various forms of criminality, as well as natural and man-made disasters, can no longer be met at diplomatic level only. This is why a number of Western countries have been trying to fi nd solutions implementing political, military and humanitarian strategies and increasingly delegating their powers, together with signifi cant fi nancial assets, to multilateral organizations and international NGOs, thus actually tasking humanitarian actors.
