I don't think it is in the NATO context so much. It maybe is in a UN chapter VI peacekeeping operation, the traditional kind of thing, as I did in Cyprus as part of the 58th Canadian unit that went there. I've heard it discussed in that context, but not in a NATO context.

And besides, countries have to volunteer to do these things; it's not as if you can hire them.
