Feel the pain.

Bullet holes and fragment bomb holes are ever so common in Sarajevo, I'm only 22, and people I've met who are younger than me have already been through war, they speak about it with a smile saying it was fun as soldiers played with them. It must've been hell though.

I've never seen war. I think I've been lucky. I hope you'll live in peace the rest of your long life. Good choice of BW for this phot-journal subject.PS-Your words reminds to me those of my parents. They were young peoples during WW2.Same words, same comments...the same.There are no differences between peoples in this world.We all do live under the same sky and our blood is red...aniway!

I thoroughly agree with Giulio about war! It was a terrible war that happened in the middle of Europe. I like the photo and choice of mono!

Thanks guys, I've never seen war myself, being one of those city boys.
The words really reflect what I got from talking to people there, not asking about war, but you get to feel how the war has changed their lives.
