The Staff Battalion 6 is a high-mountain mobile leadership and support association of the Austrian Armed Forces in the state of Tyrol . The battalion's companies are based in the garrison towns of Kranebitten ( Innsbruck ), Absam and Hochfilzen . In the course of the army reform in 2016 , the 6th staff battalion was dissolved, with the majority of the association being integrated into the newly established 6th hunter battalion of the Tyrolean military command . With the reform of 2019, this was reversed and the battalion was reactivated and reassigned to the 6th Brigade.
