Tour Benefits
Through exposure to a tangible historical war landscape, Officers and NCOs practice military strategies and discuss military decision-making.
By studying the terrain to learn from past events, the aim is to enhance their tactical skills.
Standing on the spot where it all happened evokes a specific place-bound experience, which can contain feelings of wonder and amazement, but also of awe and fear, historical connection, and more.
