In view of the limited predictability of future challenges, it will be necessary for the Bundes- wehr to continue to have a broad spectrum of capabilities at its disposal in order to adequately fulfill the tasks of national and collective defence as well as international conflict prevention and crisis management. The strategic orientation of defence research and technology is also subject to constant review and adjustment, based on the requirements that arise.

  • Jahresrückblick 2008 Ein Jahr Ging Durch Straßberg Und Kaiseringen
    2008 www.strassberg.de Jahresrückblick 2008 (Laschimke) Nach erfolgtem Holzeinschlag ist die Burg Straßberg wieder weithin sichtbar Ein Jahr ging durch Straßberg und Kaiseringen Vorwort zum Jahresrückblick 2008 Liebe Mitbürgerinnen, liebe Mitbürger, mit diesem Rückblick wollen wir, wie in den Vorjahren, die Begebenheiten und Hauptgescheh- nisse des Jahres 2008 aus kommunaler Sicht stichwortartig in Erinnerung rufen und dokumen- tieren. Insoweit ist unser Rückblick eine Art Jahreschronik, die allerdings keinen Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit erhebt. Wieder sind 12 Monate wie im Fluge vergangen. Wenn man dann am Jahresende zurück blickt, fallen einem die Ereignisse wieder ein. Vieles erscheint aber bereits vergessen, man fragt sich oft, war das wirklich in diesem Jahr? Voller Zuversicht gingen wir in das Jahr 2008. Die wirt- schaftlichen Rahmenbedingungen stimmten: die Arbeitslosigkeit so niedrig wie lange nicht mehr, die Auftragsbücher der Betriebe voll, alles schien immer noch besser zu werden. Wie eine Bombe schlug dann die Finanz- krise ein, die weltweit den Finanzmarkt ins Wanken brachte. International war das Jahr 2008 durch 2 große Wahlen geprägt. Anfang März wurde Dmitrij Medwedew zum neuen Präsidenten Russlands gewählt. Mit einem bombastischen Medienspektakel fanden in den USA im November die Präsidentschaftswahlen statt. Barack Obama wurde als 44. Präsident der Vereinigten Staaten gewählt. Was gewalttätige und kriegerische Auseinandersetzungen anbelangt, ist die Erde weiterhin ein Pulverfass. Die beiden großen krie- gerischen Konflikte in Afghanistan und im Irak sind uns leider auch im Jahr 2008 erhalten geblieben. Auch von Naturkatastrophen blieb die Welt im Jahr 2008 nicht verschont. Insgesamt ist die Welt nicht sicherer geworden. Das schreckliche Hochwasserereignis am 2. Juni im Killertal, bei dem insbesondere die Gemeinden Jungingen und Hechingen eine in diesem Ausmaße noch nie da ge- wesene Katastrophe erlebten, wird noch vielen in Erinnerung sein.

As allies continue to base troops in the area on a rotational basis, it is important to have an efficient logistics mechanism to support them and the host nation forces. As such, there needs to be an international standard which all forces must be brought up to, allowing for better integration and provision of services such as engineering, supply chain forecasting, fuel, medical assistance, transport, and logistics command and control. Join us this March, as SMi’s Defence Logistics Central and Eastern Europe conference brings together military speakers from regional and international nations to analyse and discuss the latest defence logistics advancements in terms of communications and C2 optimisation, transportation and logistics execution

  • University Microfilms International 300 N
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.
