I worked as a liason...that’s all I’m gonna say for now :) I was in what was called Sector South at the time, around Benkovac.

Now that you have the advantage of “hindsight”, if you had to do it over again, would you still participate?

“Sector South” would make a great title for a scary movie.

However, while the Croatian military committed violations of humanitarian law during the course of the offensive such as the bombardment of a column of retreating Serbian civilians and soldiers which caused deaths among the civilians, the vast majority of the abuses committed by Croatian forces occurred after the area had been captured. These abuses by Croatian government forces, which continued on a large scale even months after the area had been secured by Croatian authorities, included summary executions of elderly and infirm Serbs who remained behind and the wholesale burning and destruction of Serbian villages and property. In the months following the August offensive, at least 150 Serb civilians were summarily executed and another 110 persons forcibly disappeared.

That must have taken a lot of liasoning!
