I was stationed outside Srebrenica in 2001. Where is Kamenica? I don't recall that name off the top of my head.

Is it south by Vlasenica or farther north towards Bijelina?

After some quick googling, I found that Kamenica is also known as Crna Rijeka - Black River if my memory serves.

The usual terrible Wikipedia kind of redeems itself with a groovy map of the column's movement from Srebrenica to Tuzla....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Srebrenica_massacre_map.jpg

Kamanecia is between Srebrenica and the Konjeviæ Polje and Nova Kasaba road.

The ABiH think the column lost up to 2,000 men in the savage ambush the VRS BLIB had hastily set up for the second half of the column.

Bosnian Serb witnesses spoke of the trees being full of Muslims who'd hung themselves and of being able to walk through the forest without having to step on solid ground: the muslim bodies covered the entire area.

The survivors also spoke of the VRS artillery being deadly ( GEDDIT? ) accurate. You can actually see some Muslims being hit by a direct hit from Serb artillery from the Zoran Petroviæ video. The VRS artillery were homing in on the motorolas the column used.

So , no real mystery how the bodies in the mass grave got there , assuming of course that they are indeed muslims from Srebrenica.

They were killed in a legitimate ambush, ruthless and very one sided, but that it seems is war.
