SkyXS organised real time live connection to Uruzgan
On 1 July 2010, SkyXS organised a real time live connection between Afghanistan and the Netherlands during the 60th jubilee of the military regiment "Limburgse Jagers".
Via a satellite connection visitors of the Dutch event could listen to the speech of their commander live from Uruzgan, Afghanistan. Whilst seated comfortably in cinema chairs, they were also able to talk directly to the commander. The visitors, amongst whom some important military staff members, visibly enjoyed the communication exchange, asking the commander questions and even making jokes together.
The live connection could be followed on an immense cinema screen at the former complex of the "Ernst Kazimir Kazerne" in the Dutch town of Roermond. After the speech, the commander was able to watch the revelation of the plaque which was offered for this jubilee. Once the official ceremony ended, time had been reserved to enable individuals to have one-to-one contact to their loved ones located on mission in Afghanistan.
