career soldier unit/rapid reaction force Explanation: I don't know enough about the Austrian army to be sure about this, but from these descriptions it seems that a Kaderpräsenzeinheit is composed of what we'd call career or professional soldiers in the US. No conscripts are included. But if your context permits, you might want to go with rapid reaction force. Die Kaderpräsenzeinheiten (KPE) sind Organisationseinheiten des Bundesheeres mit hohem Bereitschaftsgrad (Auslandseinsatzbereitschaft), die für die Entsendung zu Auslandseinsätzen bestimmt sind. http://www.bmlv.gv.at/facts/glossar/stichwort.php?id=128 Rapid Reaction Force (RRF) International werden damit (meist bataillons- bis brigadestarke) Kräfte bezeichnet, die gegenüber den anderen Verbänden der jeweiligen Armee durch einen wesentlich höheren Grad der Einsatzbereitschaft (daher kurzfristig verfügbar) gekennzeichnet sind. Im gegenständlichen Zusammenhang ist gemeint, Teile der österreichischen Kräfte, die bereits zur Erfüllung des Helsinki Headline Goal Catalogue (HHC) eingemeldet sind, in einem höheren Grad der Einsatzbereitschaft zu halten. Statt innerhalb von 30 Tagen einsatzbereit und nach 60 Tagen im Einsatzraum sollte diese RRF innerhalb von 5 Tagen in einem Einsatzraum wirksam werden können und dort im Rahmen der Europäischen Union (EU) rasche demonstrative sowie präventive Maßnahmen, Evakuierungsmaßnahmen oder humanitäre Hilfsmaßnahmen durchführen. Vom Umfang her wird vorerst von kompaniestarken Kräften, in weiterer Folge von bataillonsstarken Kräften auszugehen sein. Für bereits im Dienststand befindliches Kaderpersonal sollte in Weiterentwicklung des Anreizsystems für Kräfte für internationale Operationen (KIOP)/ Kaderpräsenzeinheiten (KPE) der freiwillige Übertritt in das Berufsmodell mit Verpflichtung zum Auslandseinsatz ermöglicht werden. Kaderpräsenzeinheiten können ohne wesentliche Verstärkungen unmittelbar in den Einsatz entsendet werden. Sie stellen präsente Organisationselemente dar, die grundsätzlich über 100% des notwendigen Personalrahmens an befristeten und unbefristeten Berufssoldaten und Berufssoldatinnen verfügen. In den Kaderpräsenzeinheiten sind keine Wehrpflichtigen oder Frauen im Ausbildungsdienst vorgesehen. Diese Einheiten können fehlendes Personal oder bei Bedarf Verstärkungen durch Heranziehung von Personal aus dem Miliz- und Reservestand ersetzen oder erhalten. http://www.bundesheer.at/facts/bh_2010/archiv/pdf/endbericht... |

a cadre unit of the International (Rapid) Response Force Explanation: Might fit! Basically, almost all armies maintain - or are in the process of founding - a rapid response element. They can be variously known as the "Ever-Readies" (used for elements of the British TA back in the 60`s ), the strategic reserve (this used to be the 3rd Division of the Brit forces) or some such exotic term. Currently, Rapid Response/Reaction/Deployment Units are in vogue. Cadre usually carries the connotation of better than average, like elite, crack etc. But not Special Forces - they are something else! |

Cadre unit of the Armed Forces Disaster Relief Explanation: Operations other than Peacekeeping Another field of support for the Austrian Armed Forces is the provision of humanitarian aid to places shaken by natural catastrophes. By means of its "Armed Forces Disaster Relief Unit” (AFDRU), run by the Armed Forces NBC Defence School, Austria is able to react quickly to natural disasters worldwide, and to bring aid to the affected population within very little time, thus saving the lives of countless people. Kosovo AUCON/KFOR has been operating in the NATO-led Kosovo mission since June 1999, currently committing some 580 troops. It forms, together with Swiss and German troops, the tri-national "Task Force Dulje”, which is part of the "Multinational Brigade Southwest” (MNB SW) led by Germany or Italy. Austria has made considerable investments to the Kosovo, e. g. a container camp consisting of more than 900 containers was set up in the town of Suva Reka, serving as an operations base for the Austrian KFOR troops.

squad Explanation: Your client may feel that this word is too short... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2006-05-14 19:09:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- IMO 'cadre' is a word that is not widely used or understood in English so any formulation that uses it is going to 'sound translated'. |
