Today at Camp Butmir, COM EUFOR Major General Florin Marian Barbu, DCOM EUFOR Brigadier General Uberto Incisa di Camerana, COS EUFOR Brigadier General Tibor Szabó, and EUFOR staff attended an international medal parade honoring around 500 personnel from 16 nations.
Each recipient was awarded the European Union Common Security and Defence Policy Medal for Operation Althea, recognizing their dedicated service under UNSCR 2795, adopted on 31 October 2025.
The medal, suspended from an EU blue ribbon with a central gold or silver stripe, features twelve five pointed stars symbolizing the European Union. On its reverse, the Latin inscription “Pro Pace Unum” — “United for Peace” — reflects the very spirit of our mission.
Congratulations to all medal recipients!
