Disaster protection exercise Regex 2025: This is how Munich is preparing!
In the district of Munich, the alarm bells recently ringed, not only for the citizens, but also for the helpers of the disaster protection exercises. Together with the Bundeswehr and the district offices Freising and Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen, they took part in the large-scale exercise "Regex 2025". This took place in the Lechfeld barracks in Lagerlechfeld in the Augsburg district and lasted a proud six days in two rounds. The aim was to act quickly and coordinated in an emergency and to sharpen the cooperation between civil and military actors.
The focus of the exercise was an increased flood event, which was reminiscent of the real floods in the districts of Neuburg-Schrobenhausen and Pfaffenhofen from last year. Such scenarios bring great challenges that can only be mastered by regular joint exercises. The reservists of the district connection command (KVK) played a key role, as they act as a military interface at the district level and the communication bridge between the management group disaster protection (Fügk) and the Bundeswehr forces.collaboration and coordination in the catastrophendorf
The KVK supports Fügk by providing information on the available Bundeswehr forces and coordinating the assistance. During the exercise, 14 FÜGK employees took on numerous tasks in various areas such as the coordination of operations, media work and staff management. These tasks were rehearsed under real conditions, which was a valuable experience, especially in dealing with the media. This included a simulated press conference and media training, which ended with a subsequent evaluation.
Disaster protection is an important topic, and the Bundeswehr plays a central role. It not only offers material and relief supplies, but also provides special skills to react quickly in an emergency. Particularly noteworthy is the use of the Bundeswehr in the event of flood events, as was the case in July 2021, when around 2,000 soldiers worked to support the elimination of mud and coordinate heavy equipment. These valuable resources are part of the Bundeswehr's national assistance system, which is constantly evolving in order to meet the challenges of climate change and extreme weather events.
The importance of civil-military cooperation
The use of connecting commands that have trained in all five government districts shows how important the close cooperation between military and civilians is. More than 60 connecting commands were active in North Rhine-Westphalia to react to various requirements and emergencies, such as the impending flood disaster, the support of Allied forces and the necessary evacuation of people.
The challenges are diverse. In the event of breakdowns of military vehicles or the evacuation of retirement homes due to floods, quick decisions must be made and the right support organized. The knowledge of the region and the close networking of the connection commands come into play. These are able to provide important information about the situation and to provide advice to civilian authorities.
Overall, the exercise "Regex 2025" shows how important regular joint exercises are for effective disaster protection. The Bundeswehr complements the skills of fire brigade and other aid organizations and ensures that every move is in an emergency.
For everyone who is interested in development in the field of disaster protection, other exercises such as those in North Rhine-Westphalia also offer valuable insights into how in such critical situations and how the structures can continue to improve. Ultimately, the security is in the hands of the committed and well -coordinated forces that are willing to help in an emergency.
Due to the collaboration and coordination of the exercise in Bavaria, it shows once again: If it gets dangerous, you can rely on the partners in disaster protection and tackle together.
