Hello all,
I‘ve been doing a bit of reading on the liberation of Sarajevo airport in 1992 by Canadian troops under the UN. However, any of the sources I‘ve looked at have been short on the details armchair historians like me look for. Perhaps someone here can answer a few short questions for me.
1) What was the battalion that actually liberated the airport. I‘ve seen 3/RCR mentioned but have read nothing definitive.
2) How were the Canadians equipped? Were there any specialist teams with the enigmatic battalion as they went into the airport? What about armour support?
3) What about the Serbs? What was their strength at the airport?
Does anyone know the answers to one or all of these questions?
