My Bosnia Vacation
In 1996 I took a offer to visit Bosnia for the signing of the Dayton Accord which ended one of the early conflicts in the Balkans following the collapse of the former Soviet satellite country of Yugoslavia. The decline of Communism in The Soviet Union had seen the fall of the Berlin Wall in Germany and other eastern European communist states. In the new country of Bosnia Herzegovina NATO troops kept the peace while the citizens sorted their differences and started to rebuild their country.
