The Tactical Director for the flight, LTC Bernd Lorenzen (standing) explains the situation of the exercise scenario. During the exercise, the Component’s TCA acted as an exercise target simulating an airliner that has radio and navigational equipment failure. The TCA was then intercepted by two F-4F Phantom aircraft from German Battle Flight who provided navigational assistance and guided the TCA into an airbase in Neuburg for a low approach. After the flight Dr. Jung held a press conference in which he praised the E-3A Component and Joint Force Command Headquarters Brunssum for their role in fighting terrorism.

    2 In memory of Jeffrey Martin Whittock (1927–2013), much-loved and respected father and papa. 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A number of people provided valuable advice which assisted in the preparation of this book; without them, of course, carrying any responsibility for the interpretations offered by the book. We are particularly indebted to our agent Robert Dudley who, as always, offered guidance and support, as did Simon Hamlet and Mark Beynon at The History Press. In addition, Bradford-on-Avon library, and the Wiltshire and the Somerset Library services, provided access to resources through the inter-library loans service. For their help and for this service we are very grateful. Through Hannah’s undergraduate BA studies and then MPhil studies in the department of Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic (ASNC) at Cambridge University (2008–12), the invaluable input of many brilliant academics has shaped our understanding of this exciting and complex period of history, and its challenging sources of evidence. The resulting familiarity with Old English, Old Norse and Insular Latin has greatly assisted in critical reflection on the written sources. As always, the support and interest provided by close family and friends cannot be measured but is much appreciated. And they have been patient as meal-time conversations have given way to discussions of the achievements of Alfred and Athelstan, the impact of Eric Bloodaxe and the agendas of the compilers of the 4 Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. 5 CONTENTS Title Dedication Acknowledgements Introduction 1 The Gathering

In recent years there has been more emphasis on cooperating with other authorities, not only first responders but also e.g. those responsible for law enforcement (police). With exercises becoming more realistic and complex, they re- quire more resources and everything cannot be tested. This is where Nordic cooperation can be useful, cooperating in developing and conduct- ing exercises and sharing results from national exercises, especially where some specific issues of relevance for the other Nordic countries have been tested. This report describes results from the NKS NordEx-12 activity, to cooper- ate and share experience from Nordic radiological and nuclear emergency resonse exercises. Summary descriptions of exercises shared are given, various details were presented at meetings of the Nordic radiation safety authorities contact group on emergency preparedness, the so called NEP group. The NEP group later took over the organisistion of sharing lessons learned from exercises and developing exercise cooperation further. The planning and lessons learned from such exercises often need to be confi- dential in part and thus not suitable for NKS reporting.
