A specialist team of A&E doctors and nurses establish emergency care units in Kosovo.

On June 12, 1999 NATO troops led by British paratroopers of 5 Airborne Brigade entered Kosovo and secured key military sites. This multinational operation (code named 'OP AGRICOLA') was in response to the ethnic cleansing of Kosovo-Albanians, and followed a sustained period of aerial attack in Kosovo and Serbia. The ground operation required substantial medical support, and the British hospital element was provided by 22 Field Hospital RAMC.
