The NATO School, located in Oberammergau, Germany, is a NATO training facility for multinational military education. Since 1953, the NATO School has trained and educated members of alliance and partner nations. Its mission is to conduct education and individual training that support current and developing NATO operations, strategy, policy, doctrine and procedures. This includes cooperation and dialogue with military and civilian personnel from non-NATO nations.

The NATO School provides resident courses of instruction in five main disciplines: intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition and reconnaissance; joint operations (JOPS); weapons of mass destruction; policy; and non-commissioned officer policy department (NCOPD). Most courses are one week in duration with many subjects from which to choose.

September 16, 2010LOGEX 10: CAPSTONEDuring the past week of LOGEX 10, I’ve had the distinct honor to serve among and work with some of the best people in the multinational logistics community. I was impressed by the professionalism and competence of our friends in US Joint Forces Command (USJFCOM) J7, Allied Command Transformation (ACT) and our NATO Allies and partners. These characteristics truly show during events such as this and I am proud to be associated with the exercise and everyone here.
June 29, 2010LOGEX 10: Building a Bridge to a Secure FutureHello again and welcome to the latest update on LOGEX 10. I am currently writing from the historic city of Bucharest, Romania. I noted in previous blogs that we were in the middle of a series of five bilateral workshops that prepare participants for the actual exercise in September. Participants stand in front of the Cercul Militar National (CMN) building during the US-Romania bi-lateral NSE/LOGFAS/RSOM workshop in Bucharest, Romania.
