(Subject: Post World War II - The Balkans & Ex-Soviet Republics) British nurse, Sally Becker, was so shocked by TV pictures of suffering in Bosnia she set off to do something about it. Horrified by what she found she organised her own evacuations of sick and wounded women and children leading the press to name her "The Angel of Mostar". UN Aid Agencies often tried to impede her efforts but UNPROFOR co-operated and even used her as a kind of shield, attracting the press and TV people to armoured convoys which would have been attacked but for their presence.
