US marks end of mission in Bosnia

The United States peacekeeping mission in Bosnia has come to an end, November 2004 after serving as part of the Nato force since the end of the Bosnian war in 1995. Soon, Nato's mission will also come to an end, to be replaced by a new European Union military force.
