A multinational peacekeeping force was established in 1992 to address the humanitarian crisis ensued in the Balkans after the dissolution of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. NATO and European Union missions continued in the area in an attempt to restore peace post 1995. Canadians contributed personnel to both UN and NATO missions until 2000, with units from The RCR involved in some of the most significant events during the conflict. This panel will focus on the deployment of “N” Coy, 3RCR and “G” Coy, 2RCR under UNPROFOR, which may sound like a complicated acronym. Lieutenant-General (retired) Peter Devlin and Major-General Dennis (retired) Thompson were in leadership positions at the time and have agreed to share their experience in the theatre.

Panellists: Lieutenant-General (retired) Peter Devlin; Major-General (retired) Dennis Thompson
Facilitator: Dr. Georgiana Stanciu
Sound Director: Mark Vogelsang

The Royal Canadian Regiment Museum, as a component of The Royal Canadian Regiment, will preserve, collect and present artifacts, archives and other militaria that are relevant for the history of the Regiment in order to assist in building pride, esprit and solidarity amongst all members of The RCR family. The Museum will also foster a deeper understanding of the Regimental experience, within the broader context of military and Canadian history, among other veterans, communities in the London area and all Canadians.

The RCR Museum will promote and enhance the pride that Canadians have in their military and its achievements through ensuring they know the story of one of our nation's great Regiments.
