Personnel Recovery is the sum of military, diplomatic and civil efforts to effect the recovery and reintegration of isolated personnel. The term ‘Isolated Personnel’ refers to personnel separated from their unit or organisation and requiring recovery, including personnel held against their will.
The object of this project is to act as a portal for information regarding Personnel Recovery (PR). This will include information on all PR related activities that we are aware of and will present documentation under development as well as completed products. The aim of this is to facilitate and enhance interoperability and thus effectiveness and efficiency in the field of PR.
PR related activities. These activities encompass conferences, courses, training events and exercises. The activities will be shown in a calendar with links pages on this or other websites for further details on the specific activity.
PR documentation. This refers to:
NATO and National Policy for PR
NATO and National Doctrine for PR
NATO and National Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs) for PR
NATO and National related standards
PR equipment. Information on NATO and National equipment projects will be posted as applicable. In order to avoid duplication and outdated information this information will predominantly be published in the form of hyperlinks to the appropriate websites.
