This is Camp Demi antenna tower, when we arrived in March 99.
Visiting SFOR personnel check out the Medic M113A3:
The East Gate. Pedistrian traffic accessed the Camp here.

"Stop or I'll shoot!" in Bosnian. And this proves my 6-mos there weren't wasted.
#5: Re: Re: Bosnian Armor... Author: Dontos, Location: Vine Grove, KYPosted: Wed Jan 10, 2007 4:04 am ---- This is a photo of me giving the Washington Redskin Cheerleaders my standard Welcome & Area Briefing.
As NCOIC of the TOC, I had to conduct several such VIP (USO) briefings.
I also briefed the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders. Several touring Music groups including Larry Gatlin, The Bellamy Brothers,....and Joan Jett.
I would selecte my junior personnel to give Military VIP's the standard AOR Briefing. This way my subordinates received COmmanders Coins, if they did a good briefing.
Its a terrible job,...but someone had to do it....
