The Swiss Raid Commando was first organized by the officers' association of the canton of Neuchâtel , from 1997 to 2003 by Field Division 2 and most recently by the Infantry Training Association of the Swiss Army . Several hundred participants from Germany and abroad took part, and there were also specific posts for airborne troops .

The event was suspended for the time being due to cost reasons.
