|  GORAZDE: The Peacekeepers' Tale
A documentary on Bosnia
Reporter: Gillian Sandford
Co-Producers: Gillian Sandford and Mike Price
Technical director: Mike Price
| This double CD is the soldiers' story of one of Britain's most dangerous peace-keeping missions: to the UN-declared "safe area" of Gorazde during the 1992-95 war in Bosnia. The lightly-armed UN "Warriors" were trapped in the besieged town with no secure route for food, fuel or ammunition - and no guaranteed way out.
"GORAZDE: The Peacekeepers' Tale" is told by the privates, corporals and young officers. It is a documentary, an oral history, a sound poem from the peacekeeping trenches, telling what went on in an isolated and besieged enclave aware from the glare of the international Press.
The documentary includes all key incidents in the 18 months of peacekeeping, including the death of a young Duke soldier hit by Serb fire and the deaths of four soldiers from the Royal Gloucester Berkshire and Wiltshire regiment in two road accidents.The battalions garnered a clutch of medals. The first two recipients of the Conspicuous Gallantry Medal - Corporal Wayne Mills and Colour Sgt. Peter Humphreys tell what they did. Soldiers awarded MCs and Mentions in Despatches also tell their tales
