Comments on: Unity of Purpose in Hybrid Conflict http://acositrep.com/2009/10/15/unity-of-purpose-in-hybrid-conflict/ Situation Report on NATO Military Operations Tue, 02 Feb 2010 06:41:58 +0200 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc hourly 1 By: LS Nagarajan http://acositrep.com/2009/10/15/unity-of-purpose-in-hybrid-conflict/comment-page-1/#comment-2811 LS Nagarajan Sat, 14 Nov 2009 18:27:06 +0000 http://acositrep.com/?p=872#comment-2811 Having just returned to India after participating in a rather enthralling exercise - ARRCADE FUSION - in Sennelager, I want to convey my sincere gratitude to your Soldiers for displaying an incredible appreciation to the development context. I thought this exercise highlighted the importance of establishing the level playing field through a participative approach to a complex conflict situation. It brought both Military and Civilian side much closer and allowed sharing information with the ultimate aim of achieving a safe and secure state. In the process, we both managed to learn a lot. Yes, we managed to learn how to use 'influence' in a more inclusive way. With a deep sense of fulfilment, I should like to place on record the sincere efforts put in by each member of your staff in making this exercise a grand success. I salute your leadership.

This will really be the key to success as we (NATO partners) move forward. I offer you consider training toward an "information endstate" in your commander's intent to drive subordinate actions to the appropriate influence objectives through the messages their actions send. Best to you and your soldiers as you continue to train and prepare for deployment.
