Sir,
I wasn't in either Bosnia or Kosovo, which was the exception for a unit stationed in USAREUR. Not sure if you were using your sector to refer to the US sector or the US sector that I would have been in - just didn't want to leave an incorrect impression. My unit (3/325 at the time) was the first US unit into Bosnia in 1995, but they had been back for a over a year when I got there and the guys that had been in Bosnia were right in the middle of transfering or getting out of the Army.
