Welcome to PART II of the chronicle about Task
Force Falcon, Kosovo. This page dates from January 1, 2000.
KFOR
continues to provide security for the citizens of Kosovo, Albanians and Serbians alike. Undaunted by hatred, obstacles, terroristic attacks, the men and women of Task Force Falcon work to bring order to this chaotic province. Headquarters for U.S. forces is located at Camp Bondsteel, near Urosevac (Ferizaj) and Camp Monteith, near Gniljane (Gjilan).

and to ensure the safety of all people in Kosovo. The U.S. patrols one of the four NATO sectors providing personnel, units and equipment to other components of the KFOR organization. The U.S.sector
is in southeast Kosovo.
