TACTICAL RESERVE MANOEUVRE BATTALION  REZERVNI TAKTIČKI MANEVARSKI BATALJON

      KTM ili KFOR taktički rezervni manevarski bataljon je sastavljen od pripadnika portugalske vojske, i postoji od 2005. godine. Najznačajnija karakteristika mu je bila mogućnost raspoređivanja zrakom ili kopnom u kratkom roku na bilo koji dio Kosova. Opremljeni su za samostalno djelovanje od 72 sata (bez dodatne opskrbe) što komandantu KFOR-a daje široku mogućnost upotrebe ove jedinice.

      KFOR Tactical Reserve Manoeuvre Battalion (KTM) is a Portuguese Battalion level unit, operating as part of KFOR CJSOR since 2005. Its most relevant characteristics were the absence of caveats, capability to deploy by air or ground Kosovo-wide at reduced NTM, CRC trained and self-sustainable for 72 hours, giving COMKFOR a wide variety of possibilities and flexibility of employment.

FINISH CONTINGENT  FINSKI KONTINGENT

      Finska učestvuje u KFOR-u od 1999. godine, s otprilike 7400 Finaca koji su služili u operaciji. Trenutačno finski mirovnjaci koji djeluju u operaciji KFOR-a čine finski odred na Kosovu. Oni služe kao štabni oficiri u sjedištu KFOR-a i malom elementu nacionalne podrške u Prištini. U početku je bataljon djelovao iz logora Ville u Lipljanu. Kamp Ville je zatvoren 2010. U operaciji je ostao samo Finski tim za vezu i praćenje (LMT) i nekoliko štabnih oficira. Finski LMT djelovao je na središnjem Kosovu od 2009. do 2018. Danas finski štabni oficiri služe u različitim ograncima u zapovjedništvu KFOR-a.

Currently Finnish peacekeepers operating in the KFOR operation, form the Finnish Detachment in Kosovo. They serve as staff officers at KFOR’s headquarter and a small National Support Element in Pristina. In the beginning the battalion was operating from Camp Ville in Lipljan. Camp Ville was closed down in 2010. Only The Finnish Liaison and Monitoring Team (LMT) and few staff officers  remained in the operation. The Finnish LMT operated in central Kosovo from 2009 to 2018. Nowadays Finnish staff officers are serving in different branches in KFOR headquarters.

      Irske obrambene snage raspoređene su na Kosovo 1999. s transportnom/logističkom četom, koja se sastojala od flote zglobnih vozila, DROPS vozila, vozila 4x4 i pomoćnih vozila. Pred kraj 2003. uključenost obrambenih snaga u KFOR promijenila se kada je Transportna četa (8. Transportna četa) zamijenjena pješadijskom četom  sa oklopnim transporterima, označenom kao 27. pješadijska grupa. Područje odgovornosti (AOR) irske čete pokrivalo je 190 kvadratnih kilometara. Godine 2007./2008. Obrambene snage imenovane su vodećom nacijom u Multi-nacionalnoj operativnoj grupi Centar. Irske obrambene snage osigurale su više od 3500 pripadnika u 22 raspoređene jedinice tokom svog vremena na Kosovu. Irske obrambene snage još uvijek imaju 12 pripadnika u štabu KFOR-a (Film City).

      The Defence Forces deployed to Kosovo in 1999 with a transport/logistics company, consisting of a fleet of articulated vehicles, DROPS vehicles, 4x4s and ancillary vehicles. In September 2003, the Defence Forces’ involvement in KFOR changed when the Transport Company (8 Transport Company) was replaced by an Armoured Personnel Carrier-mounted infantry company, designated 27 Infantry Group. The Irish company’s area of responsibility (AOR) covered 190 sq km. In 2007/8 the Defence Forces were appointed as the lead nation in Multi-National Task Force (Centre). The Irish Defence Forces have provided over 3,500 individual tours of duty with 22 unit deployments during their time in Kosovo. The Irish Defence Forces still hold 12 appointments in KFOR HQ (Film City).

IMPROVISED EKSPLOSIVE DEVICE DISPOSAL  UNIŠTAVANJE IMPROVIZIRANIH EKSPLOZIVNIH NAPRAVA

      Irsko vojnici osiguravali su IEDD tim na šestomjesečnoj rotaciji s KFOR-om. Bili su smješteni u štabu MNTF (C) Lipljan. Prvi IEDD tim bio je s 27. Pješadijskom grupom (Inf. Gr) i nije imao posebnu oznaku,  28. Inf Gp i svaki sljedeći tim dizajnirao je vlastitu. Uglavnom je dizajn oznake bio timski rad. IEDD tim, 29 Inf Gp promijenio je dizajn jer se irska zastava već nosila kao nacionalna oznaka. Mogu se pronaći varijacije oznaka, ali to su uglavnom bili uzorci. Nije bilo oznake za 34. i 36. jer su te pješadijske grupe služile u Libanonu.

      Irish personnel provided the IEDD team on six month rotation with KFOR.  They were based in MNTF (C) HQ, Lipljan.  The first IEDD team was with the 27th Inf Gp and had no badge,  28th Inf Gp and each subsequent team designed their own.  In general the badge design is a team effort. The IEDD team, 29 Inf Gp changed their design because the Irish Flag was already being worn as the National Badge.   Variations may be found but they were sample badges. There was no 34th and 36th badges because those Infantry Groups served in Lebanon.

OTHER INSIGNIAS  OSTALE OZNAKE

      Maroko je poslao jednu četu vojnika u sastav NATO-ove misije na Kosovu KFOR-u (ovaj sam znak dobio otuda).

      Morocco has deployed one company of soldiers to contribute in the NATO-led international force in Kosovo KFOR.
