Land Forces
The Land Forces at present represent the biggest part of the Armed Forces of the Czech Republic. In coordination with other services, they are organised to defend territorial integrity and sovereignty of the Czech Republic.
Under a crisis situation and under state of war, they form the keystone of operation task force and they become part of the allied joint force. They are complemented by mobilised units and formations. The Land Forces are also pre-determined to meet obligations of international treaties.
The Land Forces cooperate with state administration authorities, with representatives of local governments and businesses, with schools, and other institutions, organisations and associations. They contribute to significant projects and events organised for the general public.
Since 1990, the Land Forces Day "BAHNA" has become the greatest presentation of the service. It is held every year at the military training ground at Strašice. Its goal is to present up-to-date military equipment, and professional skills and readiness of Land Forces soldiers.
