Former Yugoslavia and Kosovo |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
In March 2002 the Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR) recommended reductions in the NATO-led Kosovo Force (KFOR), including withdrawal of heavy armoured units, leading to reduction of between 5,000 and 10,000 troops from the 43,000-strong force. At the same time, SACEUR also proposed a continued reduction of troop numbers in the Stabilisation Force in Bosnia, along with reductions in air surveillance and naval support for NATO operations in the Balkans. By the end of 2004 the only remaining American forces in the Former Yugoslavia were the 1,000 Ohio Army National Guard soldiers of the 37th Armor Brigade deployed to Kosovo as peacekeepers. |
