  1. Probably a Bell 212. They're based on the famous Huey, yes.

    That's the kind of thing you only see in the movies, the daring last minute rescue. What a rush that must have been for the rescuer, being pulled off the boat just as it went down! Nice flying by the pilot there, takes some skills to put that rescuer on that boat without a winch.

    yes you are right it is Bell AB-212. the rescuers are actualy Croatian special police elite antiterrorist unit Lu?ko (ATJ Lu?ko) they are like ESU, trained in every type of rescuing, or infiltration .. including diving, paraschuting, alpinism,.. it was a very risky rescue because ther was blowing strong wind,.. and the current in the water was also strong,..

  2. I ment why did it get stuck? Lol no worries.

    the guy wanted to save boat, because of the flooding which came througth river from Slovenia, he thougth he will sucside to save boat if he is on it, and when flooding came there was no way out for him,.... he couldunt manouver on the river and the current was too strong, so he couldunt turn over the boat The boat was anchored in wrong direction. He turned the bow? upstream! and thats why it sunked,.. he was very lucky, it was a last secund rescue,..

  3. I agree with FFW TUT. I must admit I did get offended and annoyed reading the comment you came with, Frankie. You have abseloutely no idea of what you are speaking about. This is why I reply;

    Please don't write such sentences about anything you don't know.

    We/they want to give you a great feeling when playing it, so you want to discover things and really feel the "WOW!" effect. Everything kept secret is to raise your pleasure.

    Who said we don't? FFW TUT, Tim, Silverhawk and ff-hamburg are the best guys that is out there, trust me. They can make almost anything possible ingame. You'll see that.

    For now, let's just say that you should not be stating incorrect facts, it wont help you in any direction.

    Iam sorry I didnt want to offend anyone, I just expressed my feelings, but I am not expert in EM4 and dont know if those things are possible,.. I just expressed opinon and let it be as you said,.. you are experts in this,,.. again dont be offended,..it is just I never seen that complex gamplay stated here,... and again Iam not telling that you havent done it,.. but I am more to belive when I see it,.. anyway thanks for making mod,.. I am not her to provoke or anything like that,..

  4. if this mods comes out it woluld be great, but there are alot sf things I belive s.. there are many complex thing said here, and I think we have very little information from tihis 2 reasons,.. they trying to do some stoff but they failed,.. they promised so much in this mod, but they realised it is impossible.. anyway, I like models, even thougthe models shouldu"t be secrets,.. and this is my personal opinion I dont want to anyone to be offended,.. I appriciate what moders are doing, but think they should know what can be done and what cant,.

  5. If you watch this

    the negotiaters said hello and waved to the hostage taker what?

    this is the one of the right way to storm the bus, with siren distraction, they would be using flashbang also, but there was not need because this was a training :)

    I did see the video. They looked very unprofessional.

    where can I find video? I havent seen it, but I read about it.

  6. So does your friend work for the national services or something? Or is he a rescue worker? :gruebel:

    he is a police antiterrorist unit member, like USA SWAT, but they are also trained for SAR on al kind of terrain,... he was sent to Haiti as a member of UN police or sometinhg like that to a peacekeeping mission,,.. and before tragedy that hit Haiti he could leave, because his mandate there was fullyfiled, but he remained to help those people,.. he stayed there for another 3 months, without family, women, children,..

  7. Operation_storm_map.jpg

    Operation Storm (Croatian, Bosnian: Operacija Oluja, Serbian: O?e?a??ja O??ja, Operacija Oluja) is the code name given to a large-scale military operation carried out by Croatian Armed Forces, in conjunction with the Army of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, to gain control of parts of Croatia which had been claimed by separatist ethnic Serbs, since early 1991.[8]

    The operation, which took 84 hours, was documented as the largest European land offensive since World War II.[9] It began shortly before dawn on 4 August 1995 and ended with a complete victory for the Croatian forces four days later.

    These forces had received instruction by a U.S.-based firm, Military Professional Resources Incorporated (MPRI), headed by retired general Carl Vuono, which provided (along with French Foreign Legion organized training camp in Šepurine near Zadar) mainly the commissioned-officers training, but had no significant intelligence activities or professional influence on senior Croatian military strategy and tactics.[10] Its engagement was approved by the U.S. government.[11]

    Former President Bill Clinton wrote in his memoirs that he believed the Serbs could only be brought to the negotiating table if they sustained major losses on the ground.[12] The negotiations produced the Dayton Peace Agreement which ended the war in the Balkans.

    Former US peace negotiator Richard Holbrooke said "he realised how much the Croatian offensive in the Krajina profoundly changed the nature of the Balkan game and thus this diplomatic offensive."[13] Retired four-star General Wesley Clark, Director, Strategic Plans and Policy (J5) for the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff and later Supreme Allied Commander Europe simply called it a turning point.[citation needed]

    After the Srebrenica Massacre, there were concerns over the recurrence of the massacre in the Biha? pocket area, where the population of Bosniaks was four times larger than in Srebrenica and which was surrounded and under attack by Bosnian Serb and Croatian Serb forces.

    Approximately 150,000 to 200,000[14] Serbs fled approaching Croat forces to Serb-held parts of Bosnia and Serbia. The European Union Special Envoy to the Former Yugoslavia Carl Bildt called it on 7 August 1995, "the most efficient ethnic cleansing we've seen in the Balkans."[15] The Croatian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said Bildt's assessment was "unfounded."[16] German Foreign Minister Klaus Kinkel released a statement expressing "regret" about the offensive but added, "We can't forget that the years of Serb aggression ... have sorely tried Croatia's patience."[17] The United States government called for "restraint," but said the military operation had been "provoked initially by a Krajina Serb attack on the Muslim enclave of Biha?."[17] The military operations by the army continued in Bosnia-Herzegovina under Operation Mistral.

    Three Croatian generals, Ante Gotovina, Ivan ?ermak and Mladen Marka?, alleged to have been involved in the planning and execution of Operation Storm, were indicted by the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and are on trial in the Hague on charges of operating a joint criminal enterprise for the purpose of permanently removing the Serb population from the Krajina by force and of crimes against humanity[18]

    The Croatian government maintained the operation was justified on the grounds that a sovereign state has the right to be in control of its own territory. The government also insisted that Croatian Serbs not involved in "war crimes" would be able to return to the area.[19]

    In Croatia, the 5th of August is celebrated as a national holiday, Victory and Homeland Thanksgiving and the day of Croatian Defenders.

  8. 1. I didn't mention that, did I?

    2. By getting that work, they earned money, no matter if they supported the army by working, but they got money to buy clothes, food, houses, stores, all of this. You really can't say that giving the people work was wrong, it was right. That was the only plus I know about Hitler. Hitler brought the german economy on a secured level by buying a tank, you can disagree how much you want, but I still remain this as my oppinion.

    Also I did not ask to know how the german army was built up, because I do know what it was. I simply said that Hitler did do one thing that is positive for germany.

    If you wanna reply to this, please read my post before doing so.

    that politic you saying could be positive for some time,.. but after war, in any case, if they wined or lose it,.. their economy would fell down again, they would have too much millitary, and when war ends, they would have a lot of unenployed ex millitary workers,..

    looking into modern warfare, there is no a single country who profited with war except territorial benefits, even the US. - they spent at least 3 time more money on military hardware and mans in Iraq,.. and benefited a very litlle,..

    In war only rich becomes richier, and poor become poorest,..

  9. my fault thought they didn't have

    For God's shake! I've realized that the last one is MJ's They Don't Care About Us :O Can't say what I think of it though.

    yup,.. it is a bosnian version of "they dont really care about us",.. and with pretty same meaning,.. it is anti war song,. and neverthles it is not original it still has some power :)

  10. There were many German people who formed up resistance group against Nazis and we should never forget their sacrifice. Don't forget that many of the first Jews to be captured by the forces of evil were German people.

    @frankie there's no point in posting Croatian vids we can't understand them ;)

    thts why you have english translated lyric in every video,...:)

    not all germans were bad,.. they were also in the middle of thing they couldnt control,.. it is the same as slayvery, but under your own flag,. many german soldiers had to go into war,..

  11. There has not(nor will there be) any war that is "good" for the human race.

    It is always about power, money, racism.

    Cause that is just basic human nature, why should i help him when i can't get any out of it...

    But when there is something to gain(support, money, land, tech, reduced fear)then they go to war.

    tis is so true,.. there is no thing - like --- war for peace,..it is the same thing as sex for the innosence,.. :D

  12. I personally think that every war on earth should stop. Every war that exists at the moment is declared in the name of money and power. The only war I would accept would be a war against anyone who threatens humanity's peaceful living ( for example Nazis and Japanese during the WW2. The Allies should have screwed both of them) I don't want to talk about the Yugoslavia wars. It's a sad history chapter that should never have occurred.

    totally agree with you,.. and so called UN peace keeping forces should be recessed, cus they dont do what their job is,..(exp. Srebrenica, Somalia wars,...)...yugoslav war is the same example of war vaged to conquer other country teritory,.. Yugoslavia was a federal republic which was asembled of six different countrie,.. Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Macedonia and Montenegro,... Serb capital was also capital of Yugoslavia,... so it means all money from all repulics was going to Beogread and then was transfered and spent where they wanted it, mostly in serbia,.. by yu constitution all countries were given right to leave the alliance,.. so after fall of communism Croatia and Slovenia wanted to declare independence, beacause after fall of communism it was a fall of whole system,.. and Serbia knew that they will lose mass money boost from Croatia if they separate,... so they couldnt let it go,. so they started to nationalise their people and started to create mass panic among serb citizent in Croatia,.. so all of them starded seting up barricades on main roads and puting armed guards,.. (propaganda at that time was unbeliveble ) so it is begining of the war . and again it is all about money again,..

    the Europe didnt wanted to involve first because Yugoslavia was shall a lot of meoney to them and had many credits. and for them was the best for yugoslav to stay together with all their countries... again money
