DEAR PARTICIPANTS OF THE EXERCISE IR14, PERSONNEL, NCOs, OFFICERS, welcome to the Republic of Slovenia. It is our great pleasure to be a part of the Immediate

Response tale. We proudly welcome you as a host of its 2014 edition.During the main planning conference held in Zagreb, Croatia between 3 and 7 March 2014 military representatives of Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Denmark, Great Britain, Hungary, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, USA, and members of Kosovo Security Forces have agreed to conduct the yearly training at the multinational brigade level within the exercise IMMEDIATE RESPONSE 2014 (IR14 EXE). In the past three years, the international military exercise IR was organised in Croatia, while this year, the Republic of Slovenia is in charge of its organisation. Complexity of modern conflicts and other crisis response situations requires holistic approach in which wide spectrum of relevant and varied actors are brought together. Efficient cooperation and coordination between different entities represent essential elements for successful approach for resolving current conflicts.Therefore, it is vital for leaders to provide appropriate setting for military education and training in order to be prepared, and successful in the transforming multinational environment. This is of extreme importance especially for quality military cooperation in the region. Therefore the ambitions of this two-leveled distributed exercise with composed and standing headquarters are so high.For this reason, we are extremely glad that NATO partnership and cooperation of Slovenia, USA and Croatia as well as the contributions of other NATO members and countries in the region enable us to create a special synergy of goals, primary military cooperation, improve the security situation and enhance cooperation of the countries in the region.We are also looking forward taking to this opportunity to show you the beauty of our small but very diverse and colorful country.On behalf of the Slovenian Armed Forces (SAF), USAREUR, Croatian Armed Forces and all other units supporting this in-ternational event I wish you a pleasant stay in Slovenia.Welcome once again to the IR14!

Brigadier GeneralMiha Škerbinc,IR14 EXE Co-director,1st Brigade Commander

DEAR EXERCISE PARTICIPANTS, The period we live and work in is marked by quick changes. Education and professional handling of tasks almost go without saying. In this complex

world, successful and coordinated effort thus require adapt-ability, zeal, teamwork, willingness to provide as big personal contribution as possible, but mainly hard work over and over again. Slovenian Armed Forces members thus continuously train for a whole range of defence tasks. Training and exercise remain part of our daily routine up to perfection.Procedures are being integrated and verified within demanding Slovenian and international exercises. Between 24 April and 9 May, exercise Rock Proof 2014 helped us acquire experiences in planning and realisation of tactical combat shooting exercises as part of joint warfare. The exercises joined the effort of 1000 Slovenian and U.S. military.In the beginning of June, we completed JTAC (Joint Terminal Attack Controller) and FAC (Forward Air Controller) training within the exercise Adriatic Strike 2014 marked by exceptional international participation.Between 26 June and 5 July, the exercise Clever Ferret 2014 trained, exercised and evaluated MLF HQ ability to plan and conduct any assigned mission in accordance with the most recent NATO standards and criteria.Now, we are in for the most important act – this year’s main Slovenian Armed Forces exercise Immediate Response 2014. This international exercise with some 1000 partici-pants undoubtedly represents a major logistic, organisa-tional and working challenge for the entire Slovenian Armed Forces. It is an exercise with bold aims to achieve maximum interoperability, contribute to the stability in the region and reinforce regional integration. On this demanding path, I wish you all a synergy of relations, coordinated action and mutual complementarity among colleagues, which provides for the best possible results. Adapt quickly, but most of all, cooperate closely with our partners and friends within various forms of alliances, which will make security and peace the values of our present and at the same time our heritage.

Partizan hospital of Franja with local guide

The Second World War was one of the most difficult trials for mankind. Clandestine hospitals were a particularity of the Slovenian resistance movement. They were built in barely accessible forests, deep gorges and underground caves. They saved lives in circumstances that are hardly imaginable today. The Partizan hospital of Franja was built in year 1943 in barely accessible Pasice gorge in the Cerkno region on the advice of a local inhabitant. With the devoted assistance of the locals, the hospital was constructed gradually until the end of the war, when 14 wooden cabins and several auxiliary facilities were squeezed into the bottom of the hollow alongside the stream. Already during the war, the hospital was named after Franja Bojc Bidovec, a partisan physician who ad-ministered the hospital for the longest period of time. 578 severely wounded persons were treated in the central facility, today known as the Franja Partisan Hospital, and about 300 wounded persons were treated in other dislocated units. Among the wounded were, besides Slovenes, also members of former Yugoslav nations and the nations of the Soviet Union, Italians, Poles, Frenchmen, two Austrians, and two Americans.
