Croatian Armed Forces receive award of the Vukovar-Srijem County
The Croatian Armed Forces have been among the recipients of the annual extraordinary award of the Vukovar-Srijem County conferred by the County Assembly at the ceremony marking the County Day in the town of Otok on 11 November 2014.
The award has been presented honouring the exceptional effort invested by the Croatian Armed Forces assisting the civilians and humanitarian activity in the flood-hit areas of the County.
Taking the award on behalf of the Croatian Armed Forces, the Chief of the General Staff, General Drago Lovrić expressed appreciation and pledged the support to the Croatian soldiers to the civilian community against any threat or obstacle faced, as shown since the Homeland war.
The extraordinary annual awards for the contribution to flood relief earlier this year have been presented to the Croatian Firefighting Association, the Police Department and Croatian Red Cross Society of the Vukovar-Srijem County too, as well as to a number of researchers, individuals and institutions contributing to the development of the County.
