Psychologische operaties

 

For many years, Belgium has contributed specialist personnel to various mulitinational PSYOPS

formations - individual soldiers have served within German OPINFO units on deployment i.e. KOSOVO,

MACEDONIA, and BOSNIA.  It is only recently - 2006 in fact, that Belgium has established a dedicated

PSYOPS capability.  The unit or speciality is 'hidden' within an old established regimental unit - The 17 Recce - a cavalry unit.

Officially PSYOPS was added to 17 Recce in 2003, as was a CIMIC detachment.

 

Recent information received, is that PSYOPS within Belgian Army is now entrenched - in that as of 19 October 2007, the 17 Recce unit no longer carries this name. The new name is the INFORMATION OPERATIONS GROUP (17 Recce).........PSYOPS having increased it's importance and value in the Belgian Armed Forces.

As of 2008, The Belgian Information Operations Group(17 Recce) has had a new heraldic designation authorised.
