Solbiate Olona (VA), 3-4 November 2016. The NATO Rapid Deployable Corps Italy hosted “The Enhanced NATO Response Force (eNRF) Support Concept” Seminar. This two-day seminar, chaired by Chief of Support Division, Brigadier General Luca FONTANA, represented an excellent forum to discuss the concepts underpinning the support capabilities of NRDC-Italy in its role of Land Component Command as the HQs takes this responsibility starting from January 2018.
Lively discussions and brainstorming briefings have encouraged representatives of the NATO Support community to share ideas, initiatives, lessons identified and “best practices”.
This event represented a very good occasion to promote a common understanding of the Support Division role in eNRF operations, as well as to further discuss possible challenges emerging from the implementation of relevant NATO doctrine.
The Land Component Command is part of the NATO Response Force (NRF), a highly capable joint multinational force able to react in a very short time to the full range of security challenges. It represents the main military instrument of the Alliance for a rapid military response, either within the boundaries of the Collective Defence or the so-called Crisis Response Operations (conflict prevention and resolution, and crisis management).
