- W77634558 abstract "The past several days had been remar@by warm and pleasant in Kansas for the end of October, but now the bitter, cold north wind howled as soldiers with the quick reaction force (QRF) huddled in the warmth of their sleeping bags. As the radio hummed to life with yet another mission, they scrambled into their gear, picked up their Kalashnikov assault rifles or M16A2s and stumbled into the predawn light. They could hear the steady thump, thump of approaching helicopters. The helicopters landed and the blades stopped turning. The pilots joined the QRF soldiers clustered around a Russian lieutenant. It was his day to command. The lieutenant described the mission and his plan, pausing frequently so the interpreter could convey the full message. An ammunition dump was reportedly concealed in the buffer zone. The QRF had to find and capture it. After issuing the order and answering questions, the lieutenant inspected the force. Following an equipment check, the QRF boarded the helicopters for lift-off The helicopters rose into the air and over the rolling Kansas plain. The north wind rocked and buffeted the helicopters as they flew. The soldiers shouted out conversations as the adrenalin rush kicked in. A US Army specialist was trying to explain to a Russian junior sergeant that today was Halloween and what significance that held for Americans. RUSSIAN BOOTS in America's heartland used to be the stuff of bad fiction-but it really happened. PEACEKEEPER 95 (PK 9), a combined US and Russian peacekeeping (PK) exercise held at Fort Riley, Kansas, provided realistic combined training and forged stronger relations between the two countries. PK 95 demonstrated that US and Russian units could work together in such operations-as they are now doing in Bosnia. PK9S was another successful step in the US-Russian military-to-military cooperation program which has been under way since 1991. Several Russian officers have studied at US war colleges, the National Defense University and the US Army Command and General Staff College. In 1994, elements from the US 3d Infantry Division (Mechanized) [3d ID(M)] and the Russian 27th Guards Motorized Rifle Division (27th GMRD) participated in PEACEKEEPER 94 (PK94) in Totskoye, Russia. PK 95 marked the first time Russian and US soldiers trained together in the Continental United States. The exercise enabled soldiers from both countries to practice interoperability in PK missions and to share and develop tactics, techniques and procedures (TIPs) for PK tasks. More important, the exercise allowed US and Russian soldiers to develop personal relationships based on trust and mutual understanding. That both nations felt the exercise was important was demonstrated by visits from Russian Minister of Defense General Pavel Grachev, US Secretary of Defense William Perry, Secretary of the Army Togo West, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General John Shalikashvili and US Army Forces Command Commander General John H. Tielli Jr. Mission and Planning In February 1995, the Office of the Secretary of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff tasked the 1 st Infantry Division (Mechanized) [1st ID(M)], Fort Riley, Kansas, with planning and executing a combined PK exercise with the 27th GMRD. of the US 3d ID(M), Wurzburg, Germany, would also participate. The mission: Elements of US and Russian military forces conduct a combined PK exercise at Fort Riley, Kansas, 22 October to 4 November 1995, to develop a relationship based on mutual trust and better understanding of each other; to enhance interoperability between forces in a peacekeeping role; and to promote military to-military cooperation between forces.1 A series of three planning conferences at Fort Riley and in Moscow enabled the 1 st ID(M) and 27th GMRD to begin forging professional and personal relationships. Further, 1st ID(M) and Russian commanders developed three overarching exercise goals: * Enhance military cooperation and trust between the United States and the Russian Federation, with long-term implications for world peace and stability. …" @default.
