You mean 'country' as in Krajina, de small Serbian part of Croatia which was taken back/liberated/occupied (depends on which camp you are) by the Croatian army in July 1995? Were you there before summer '95? Must have been a fascinating journey...Coldwater wrote:The last two pictures have a particular history.While the car driven within krajina I stopped in a small country where in the gardens there were these two F84,but the inhabitants did not like very much my presence and cameras so after a few shots I had to run away quickly
The second to last picture you can read on the tip "Croatian Air Force" like saying that Croatia is a fly only ...relics
