Served as artilleryman under KFOR mission

Served as artilleryman under KFOR mission.

A former soldier of the Czech Army. He served for 15 years. He was returning from a veteran reunion at that moment where he met fellow fighters who he served with in Kosov. He served in 2009 in Kosovo in the KFOR unit. He was an artilleryman. He drove a BVP (an armed vehicle) with a 30 mm gun along the Serbian-Kosovo border. Czech units were on the Kosovo side and Serbian ones on the Serbian side. It was to show a cooperation between the two armies. Local people (Kosovo people) perceived them in a friendly way. One of the reasons could have been that if they hadn’t been there, there would have been a higher danger from the Serbian side. He studied University of Defence and served in Pardubice until dissolution of his artillery unit. The unit was relocated to Jince. He works in the private sector as a turbine design engineer.

Břetislav Sobek

My name is Bretislav Sobek. I am curious and don’t understand new things. That is the reason why I ask, I write it down and post it.

I have written hundreds of emails to newspaper’s editorial offices. They have answered me once. They wrote me that if I wanted to write I should study journalism including a link to the right faculty. They said it was supposed to be the right place for me.

Others answered with a suspicion that I was a PR manager of a political party. I just wanted to inform my fellow citizens about what I think was important to them.

I applied for Journalists unions. They didn’t accept me and weren’t able to explain me why. The same went for another ten candidates.

And that’s the reason why I decided to set up my own newspaper and named myself a chief editor.
