|  The email computer at Mostar. |
 When the Army pulled out, our guys hired their cook to continue providing meals. They would go shopping with her to get the groceries. The truck had an overheating problem. |  The living quarters were Corimecs. |
 On the way back to Sarajevo, stopped at a roadside Bar-B-Q place. |
 They have a goat on a spit and have improvised a waterwheel to turn it. |
 If you want it to turn faster, open the faucet a little more. |
 Stuck in traffic on the approach to Sarajevo. The children were always curious and usually friendly toward us. |  She wanted her picture taken. |
 Winter again! The US NIC. |
 Another view of the NIC. You can see what a prominent feature our catwalk was. The catwalk allowed us to bring down our antenna's for servicing. |
 Burning classified material in the burn barrel. |
 Same barrel after a night of snow. |
 Paul is cold. He would like to be home in Naples, not in Sarajevo. |
 This is SOUTHERN Europe, right? |
 The Jadran "hotel" and the US NIC (on right). |
 This building was so booby-trapped that they finally gave up on it and just put tape around it warning everybody to stay away. |
 Another view of the US NIC, showing our antenna towers. |
 The Crystal Palace was a Pizza place on base. The pizza was what we called "Ketchup Pizza" since the red sauce seemed to be mostly ketchup. |
 Snow covered limbs, looking at the Serbija Hotel. |
 How about one more view of the NIC and our towers? |
 One of my Marines, about to leave in his HMMWV. |
 The gas station at Butmir. |
 On the road to Tuzla. |  The Staff Sergent driving. |
 Visit to the former Olympic skiing area on Mt Igman near Sarajevo. |
 The lodge. |  The Ski Jumps. |  My #2 and one of our Marines. |
 #2 and I. |
 Since they cleared all the landmines (at least we hope they got them all), many people have returned to the slopes. |
 A couple boys and their sled. |
 A snow covered mosque on the way back to Sarajevo. |
 One advantage of being at HQ in Sarajevo instead of out at one of the MNDs was that you could go out to dinner at restaurants in town. |
 Our favorite was the Texas, a Tex-Mex place in downtown Sarajevo. |
 Allthough I didn't have to sleep with the equipment anymore, I did have roommates who came and went at different times. Here I am opening a care package from friends. |
 Apache attack helicopters at Camp McGovern near Brcko. Preparing for the arbitration decision. |  This is a good way to block an entrance. |
