Medal United Nations Bosnia UNPROFOR

THE UNITED NATIONS PROTECTION FORCE (UNPROFOR) MISSION WAS ESTABLISHED IN MARCH 1992 TO MONITOR THE SIX PORTIONS OF THE FORMER YUGOSLAVIA, BUT THE TASK HAS BEEN A DAUNTING ONE AS FIGHTING CONTINUED WITH ALMOST NO LETUP, CEASE-FIRES WERE ESTABLISHED AND IGNORED AND THE ATROCITIES WERE REPORTED ON ALL SIDES. AS THE FIGHTING SPREAD, THE UN'S DUTIES BECAME MORE COMPLEX AND THE MISSION WAS TERMINATED IN 1995, BEING REPLACED BY THE UNCRO MISSION.
