First NATO troops arrive in former Yugoslavia □ Two sergeants arrived in the area Monday to pave the way for the deployment of 20,000 more Americans. SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herze- govina (AP) — U.S. and Euro pean soldiers landed in the Balkans Monday, the first wave of advance troops for a 60,000- strong NATO peace mission that introduces American forces into the Bosnian conflict. In a near-freezing drizzle, three camouflaged British C-130 Hercules transport planes touched down in Sarajevo carry ing 28 NATO soldiers: French, British, Belgians and the first two Americans. “We’ll be setting up the head quarters for the bigger force to come down,” said Sgt. Matthew Chipman, of Beardstown, Ill., who arrived with Sgt. Todd Eichmann, of Kansas City, Mo. In Croatia, 56 British commu nications expert^ arrived in the port city of Split from Brueggen, Germany. Some will stay at Split, a key transit point for Bosnia. Others will head for Sarajevo and Tuzla. The 2,600-soldier multination al “enabling troops” moving into Bosnia and Croatia will set up communications, plan transporta tion and arrange supplies in the 10 days before the signing of the agreement to end 3 1/2 years of war in the former Yugoslavia. After Balkan leaders sign their accord Dec. 14 in Paris, NATO will start dispatching its massive peace-enforcing troops, one-third of which — or 20,000 — will be Americans. Some lawmakers have con cerns about U.S. participation. Members of Congress who visited Sarajevo over the weekend said both the Bosnian government and Serbian leadership had promised them U.S. soldiers will be safe, but that Bosnian Serb objections still worried them. As part of the vanguard, the U.S. is sending 735 soldiers to Bosnia and 730 to Croatia, ac cording to Pentagon figures. De fense Secretary William Perry said Monday in Washington that the entire enabling force would be in Bosnia or on its way by the end of the week. Americans played supporting roles in the U.N. peacekeeping mission that the NATO-led force will replace — running a field hospital in Zagreb, Croatia, helping out with logistics in Bosnia and watching over Mace donia, the only republic to se cede peacefully from Yugoslavia. But these were low-risk jobs. The U.S. soldiers who will form the backbone of the NATO-led peace force will be potential tar gets, primarily of rebel Serbs un happy with the terms of the peace agreement.
