A US Army (USA) Black Hawk helicopter comes in for a landing at Camp Butmir, located in Sarajevo, Bosnia. The hills in the background give a sense of how close the base was to the fighting that enveloped the city that ended in 1995 with the Dayton Peace Accord. This air base heavily bombarded then now converted to the Command Operations for Stabilization Force (SFOR) troops in Bosnia during Operation JOINT FORGE
