TANKOGRAD No 7015 IFOR

Operation Joint Endeavour, the NATO-led deployment of the Implementation FORce (IFOR) in order to end the conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina (former Yugoslavia), was the first combat operation of NATO ever. It also was a milestone in the quick change of NATO from an alliance focused mainly on protecting the territorial integrity of its members into an alliance that more and more would be involved in securing and establishing peace in other regions of the world. All states that in 1995-1996 were members of NATO and featured armed forces and the nations of the PfP program as well as other nations assigned troops to IFOR and took part in Joint Endeavour. This publication shows the colourful multinational motor pool of the operation.
