30 June 1999
U.S. Marine Corps Light Armored Vehicles (LAV-25) escort vehicles transporting Kosovo Liberation Army members through a village in Kosovo on June 30, 1999. The KLA members were being escorted to a location where they could turn in their weapons. Elements of the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit are deployed from ships of the USS Kearsarge Amphibious Ready Group as an enabling force for KFOR. KFOR is the NATO-led, international military force which will deploy into Kosovo on a peacekeeping mission known as Operation Joint Guardian. KFOR will ultimately consist of over 50,000 troops from more than 24 contributing nations, including NATO member-states, Partnership for Peace nations and others. The LAV's are from the 2nd Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion.
