New Zealand And Australian Armies To Talk


New Zealand And Australian Armies To Talk

The three day annual Army-to-Army talks between New Zealand and Australia starts today at Linton Military Camp.

The talks assist in maximising the interoperability of the two Armies and work to improve our understanding, effectiveness and bilateral rapport, building on our long-standing and close alliance.

Discussion and information exchanges will focus on matters of mutual interest, including force development, future operating concepts, doctrine, training, personnel and materials.

The talks will also provide a forum to identify and solve interoperability issues and common problems, discuss engagement initiatives such as individual and combined training programmes and personnel exchanges, and identify long-term capability development issues that have potential to improve interoperability.

New Zealand Army's, Brigadier Paul Southwell and Australian Deputy Chief of Army, Major General Ian Gordon will lead the discussions in which 7 Australian and 13 New Zealand delegates will attend. >
