I. General Dahinden, AMPLE and the AMW Manual
This contribution is dedicated to the memory of General Erwin
Dahinden: a friend, a colleague and a founding father of AMPLE.
AMPLE stands for Air and Missile [Warfare] Programme of Legal
Education. Erwin played an indispensable leadership role in launching
AMPLE into orbit in 2010 (under the aegis of the Geneva Centre for
Security Policy), and I have had the honour of serving as its Academic
Director.
AMPLE is a training project designed for military officers (both
legal advisers and ops officers), especially - albeit by no means
exclusively - those serving in the Air Force. So far, approximately
a dozen AMPLE training courses have been held, across the world,
either in a single country and on the regional level. Each course
consists of a series lectures interlaced with small study groups of
participants working on a hypothetical scenario, culminating with a
debrief predicated on their conclusions.
The AMPLE team uses as a basic tool of instruction the Manual on
Air and Missile Warfare (AMW Manual) - consisting of 175 Black-
Letter Rules divided into 24 Sections - produced by an international
Group of Experts (under the auspices of the Program on Humanitarian
Policy and Conflict Research at Harvard University) and finalized
