Transcription

We arrived in Bosnia and we were briefed very well prior to going there and we flew in and it was, we had an opportunity to fly around a little bit, and then you had a chance to travel. I mean the devastation, all the major sporting facilities were all totally destroyed and then again we had the opportunity to go around to do some, a little bit of patrol where our troops would have to go and, of course, because of the war there were still bodies laying around that, you know, in Canada you would have an awful hard time trying to understand that someone wouldn’t allow you to go in and give it a proper burial, but that’s war. If you can visualize a city like Toronto and all of a sudden everybody’s fighting in it and it’s totally destroyed. There’s nothing left, just the odd person in some hotel trying to survive.
