Country: | In '94 I was sent to Bosnia which was boring as ****, but I was sent again in late March of '99 this time to assist in the operations within Kosovo ,to perform target designations for Cf-18's, we were also preparing for a possible invasion of the province, but we were more serious about preparations for search and rescue missions, which we didnt even get to do, god forbid I might have to shoot someone.

Country: | My unit crossed into Kosovo after the bombing stopped and landed at what became Camp Bondsteel. We then returned to Kosovo in 2002.

Country: | Well yes we did end up crossing there too, but not as an Invasion force, more as a "Sorry we bombed you and slaughtered your families, making Milosevic your the good guy....so here have a chocolate bar" we never thought that we could win by just airpower(though it was the intention), but we came in, I got to see Pristina which was a f*cking mess after we were done with it.
We never should have bombed the city's.

Country: | Pristina still was a mess in 2003. Hell the whole area was a mess still when we left the second time.

Country: | I do, but I also believe that the military was influencing him quite a bit. I dont think he is the only one to blame, hell everyone there is to blame in my opinion.

Country: | I agree, to be honest I think we would have had more progress if had just let the Russians into Kosovo, they trusted the Russians.

Country: | To be honest I dont know about that. We did let the Russians in Kosovo. They took over Pristina Airport and the area on the other side of our sector. Can not remember the name of the area however it was in the Scriptie Valley (probably spelled that way wrong). We would fly sometimes to the Russian areas and the people were scared and frightened. We would try and talk to them and you could see that they were being beaten by the Russian Soldiers. However you go to the US, British/Canadian, German, and French sectors they were not scared and frightened. We actually had great success with the people in Kosovo the times that I was there.

Country: | The reason of ethnic cleansing there wasn't Milosević or gotovina or anyone......... The reason is the difference between religions. Allways the same point...... |
