Representatives from EUCOM, U.S. Embassy Belgrade, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Europe District, Serbian government and the local community celebrate the completion of the Ivo Andric Primary School sports gymnasium in Pranjani September 24, 2012. The EUCOM funded and USACE managed humanitarian assistance project included a 1,580-square-meter sports gymnasium with locker room facilities. The project was completed in the town of Pranjani as a small token of thanks. During World War II more than 500 Airmen were shot down over occupied Serbia and rescued by by local Serbians who ultimately assisted in the largest evacuation of troops behind enemy lines in history. Through partnership and the successful completion of this project the people of the U.S. and Serbia continue to cultivate their friendship.
