'We could hear the burning': Canada's top soldier remembers the Battle of Medak Pocket

A Canadian Forces 1 Combat Engineer Regiment Bison speeds past burning and destroyed buildings in Pristina, Kosovo, Yugoslavia on Wednesday June 16, 1999. This week, the Canadian Forces are marking the 30-year anniversary of the Battle of Medak Pocket.

Thirty years ago this week, Canadian soldiers on a peacekeeping mission fought a pitched battle against Croatian forces near the town of Medak in the former Yugoslavia. Today, military members are expected to mark the anniversary of the Battle of Medak Pocket with a low-key ceremony at the national peacekeeping memorial in Ottawa.
