The Defence Attaché Staff
The Embassy's Defence Attaché Staff, headed by the Defence Attaché, represents all the branches of the German Armed Forces, including the civilian Defence Procurement and Technology Department.
One of its major tasks is to advise the Ambassador on defence policy, military affairs, armament policy, defence technology and procurement. It also coordinates arrangements for German service personnel posted to the United Kingdom.
It issues information on German defence policy, armed forces and armaments on request to UK goverment officials and non-governmental organisations, and it deals with a wide range of public inquires.
