Minister Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert van Defensie en haar Duitse collega Ursula von der Leyen tekenen 4 februari een overeenkomst waarbij de 43 Gemechaniseerde Brigade uit Havelte officieel integreert in Duitse Eerste Pantserdivisie.

Daarmee krijgt Nederland de beschikking over Duitse Leopardtanks. Een Nederlandse tankcompagnie uit Havelte is daarvoor in Duitsland in opleiding.

De ondertekening is in Amsterdam aan boord van het logistieke marineschip Zr.Ms. Karel Doorman, dat in de toekomst ook door Duitsland mag worden gebruikt. De volgende dag komen in Amsterdam de Europese Defensieministers bijeen.

Spanish frigate carries an SH-60 while the replenishment tanker appears to carry an SH-3. Both are inside.
At Spaarnwoude the English Lynx was also inside.

Yes, very near, just drive to Vlothavenweg, and there is a dead end road to the anchoring place of the ships.
