After watching this amazing depiction of the Battle of the Medak Pocket, fought by LCol Jim Calvin's 2PPCLI, there should be no doubt in anyone's mind just exactly what part the Croats played in the "ethnic cleansing" of the Serbs.
Either through media dis-interest or general Canadian ennui, this first battle fought by Canadian troops since the Korean War went largely unnoticed. It wasn't until some 9 years after the fact did Canada's Governor General give recognition in the form of a GG's Commendation.
