Of course! I just wish I could have taken part in the actual action to liberate the homeland. I was too young in ‘91 and by the time I got back in ‘94 they didn’t need volunteers and had more than enough experience fighting while I had none. I’m just glad I was able to participate and help out.
I have to commend you on your patriotism. And I really mean that without any irony. You have guts for leaving the United States to go back to a war zone thousands of miles away to fight for another country (in this case, your country.)
Having said that, I’m curious about something - I know that there were Serbs who were U.S. citizens who went back to fight for their homeland, too. If the U.S. had gone to war against Croatia, like it went to de facto war against the Serbs, whose side would you have taken?
I wonder about that, in general, from time to time - how does one go about making that choice when one feels loyalty to two different countries...
I’m a patriot for the Serbs, but I certainly don’t have those kind of guts. I fight for the cause from afar...
