That was on my Roto in 1998. They set fire to "Hotel 153" and the IPTF Station along with attempting to fire bomb the new Fire Truck that we delivered a few weeks earlier. Subsequently we were instructed not to fire "warning shots" with .50 Cal MG

There were a number of tense moments in the weeks following that, including one evening where we intercepted half a dozen busses loaded with off-duty Croat soldiers coming to shake things up. Fun times.
