Parliament approves Czech foreign missions next year
Prague- Foreign missions of Czech troops in the Balkans, Afghanistan and Iraq will continue next year and the Czech Republic will also join the U.N. peace-keeping mission in Lebanon and will contribute to the NATO rapid deployment forces as the Chamber of Deputies passed the plan of military operations abroad for next year today.

The Czech army as a whole is hardly a force to be reckoned with but there are many specialist units that are actually fairly desirable. Švejk contributed a humanity or idiocy (depending on perspective) to war, Czech pilots in WWII fought in the battle of Britain and now chemical disposal experts and peace keepers contribute to conflicts around the world.
