I saw memorials to Serb/Croat/Bosnian soldiers in the Former Yugoslavia in '02-'03. I forget exactly where it was between Zgon and Sarajevo. Our road move halted for a break and I noticed a small fenced area with a black polished stone. After crossing the street, I realized it was a rectangular wall with etched faces, names and dates. New style methods. Seemed like those were men from that town who were killed in the war.

There was a partisan's memorial in Drvar. Ed Storey mentioned that the WWII tank memorials in parts of Croatia were proportional to those towns' contribution of men to the partisan movement.
