Major Verena Plattner takes stock of her command of Staff Battalion 6, which consists of eight units. The Tyrolean is the first woman in this position in Austria and talks about her daily life and what challenges she will face in the future.
With the commands “Habt-Acht”, “Left Um” and “Im Walk March”, parts of the 6th Staff Battalion train for celebrations such as the last national holiday in the courtyard of the Standschützen barracks in Innsbruck. At the same time, other soldiers at the Lizum-Walchen military training area practice live shooting with the assault rifle 77 and the machine gun 74. And not far from the Obernberger See on the Brenner, other military base soldiers have their so-called field camp week, during which they learn about life in the open air and learn military skills for emergencies.
