Telecommunications Training Association 70

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
School for staff in integrated use

The telecommunications training association 70 was a military association of the Bundeswehr with its seat initially in Cologne-Ossendorf , since 1970 in the Liège barracks in Cologne - Longerich .

Since the beginning of the formation of the Bundeswehr, there was a need to train officers, NCOs and men for use in NATO staffs. Since the army was the largest part of the armed forces, it also had the largest share in numerical terms. As early as 1960, a special telecommunications training company 412 for integrated telecommunications personnel was set up at the telecommunications training battalion. But this was not enough. In 1967, the then command staff of the Army (Fü H) therefore ordered the establishment of the telecommunications training association 70. The association should train telecommunications personnel and personnel for general use in integrated staffs at home and abroad. The main focus of the training lay in teaching the English language , the principles of telecommunications technology, including in the field, and mastering the office communication of the time (e.g. typing ).

At the head was a commander with the disciplinary authority of a regimental commander who was directly subordinate to the general of the leadership troops in the troop office. In 1970 the subordination to the military office was changed and the association was placed under the command of the command telecommunications brigade 900 . In 1972, Fü H ordered the association to be renamed Training Center 70 and subordinate it to the Telecommunications Regiment 95; this regiment belonged to the command telecommunications brigade 900.

In 1977 the training center 70 became the school for staff in integrated use, which was dissolved in 2004.
