CAOC Finderup 1993 - 2013 - Flyvevåbnets Historiske Samling

EPILOGUEby the editorCombined Air Operation Centre Finderup and Bunker 7 have been the working environment formany colleagues from NATO nations. Over the past two years I have come to know some ofthese fine professionals. Although the decision for the closure of CAOC Finderup was taken inJune 2011, all the personnel in the CAOC Finderup kept up the spirit, pride andprofessionalism until the deactivation in July 2013. New tasks in relation to the internationalNATO mission were resolved and the transition to CAOC Uedem was planned and executed ina professional manner.It is with all those professionals in mind this book has been made. I thank all thecontributors, and the inspiration given in the process. The present story about CAOC Finderupis a snapshot and like all history, it is a living one and perhaps some time in the future the fullstory might be written.SØREN FALK-PORTVEDDIRECTOR SUPPORT CAOC FINDERUPLiterature:“Safeguarding Security in the Baltic Approaches 1962 – 2002”,published by Joint Headquarter North East“Ved Forenede Kræfter”, publicished by the Danish Defence Command 2000“Fra Asta til Skylight og Gotham 1951 – 2007”, published by Flyvevåbnets Historiske SamlingBetænkning nr. 1188, Beretning fra Forsvarskommissionen af 1988”Ulydiges Kvinders Magt – Kvindefredslejren ved Ravnstrup som Politis Proces”,Aalborg Universitetsforlag 198934Back to Tables of Contents
