U.S. soldiers PFC Lukas Holm from Portland, Ore., from 173d Airborne Brigade packs his parachute after landing in Kosovo as part of an exercise named Rapid Guardian III near the village of Slatina on Wednesday, Nov. 28, 2001. In the post-Sept. 11 era, such rapid-deployment exercises also carry an important message to U.S. friends and foes worldwide: If need be, American troops are ready to go anywhere in the fight against terrorism.

No body armor? A year ago, we had to wear our flak vest EVERYWEAR in Kosovo it seemed ( Task Force Falcon 2A). Even then, Kosovo wasn't much more then a photo op. for my unit - being stationed on Camp Bondsteel most of the time. One of my friends got shot at with an AK on guard duty - not directly - just some nut firing towards the perimeter of Camp Montieth.
