00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.145
The years of 1990, 1991 were special for me,
not only because we became independent, but also because I got

00:00:10.145 --> 00:00:19.425
married, then in October 1991 my first daughter was born, it was a time of the biggest changes

00:00:19.425 --> 00:00:25.705
in my life. At that time, when we were in the middle of the war, we were drafted into the Territorial Defence.

00:00:25.705 --> 00:00:33.732
They came looking for me at my home, as my mother
told me, even members of the other side, the YPA intelligence officers,

00:00:33.732 --> 00:00:40.606
because at that time it was quite important
which side you took, and the YPA was pretty much alive.

00:00:40.606 --> 00:00:55.115
Before and during the war, I spent more time waiting,
we were drafted and positioned in the former municipality of Ljubljana Šiška,

00:00:55.115 --> 00:00:59.613
where the main headquarters were located and where all
Territorial Defence members gathered.

00:00:59.613 --> 00:01:06.811
Unfortunately, the problem at the time was that there were no weapons. Some of us were simply waiting for what would happen next.

00:01:06.811 --> 00:01:13.977
I myself did not take part in direct war operation
at that time. We were a special unit of engineers,

00:01:13.977 --> 00:01:20.720
those who were in charge of
blowing up a bridge or something similar, if necessary.
