"The Canadians’ job was to keep the Serbs and Croats apart, but their role was not respected. They were often shot at and shelled despite flying the blue UN flag. “Everything was mined. When I got back, I couldn’t walk on my grass for three weeks,” said Setter. The 450 Canadian peacekeepers were allowed to return fire only when directly fired upon. That happened in mid-September in Medak, a small village located in a Serbian enclave within Croatia." Thank you from a grateful Canadian.
