One of the training goals is to introduce new battalion members into their roles. Lance Corporal Boško Miljković is one of them.— Field training in intelligence gathering is demanding and complex because it requires a variety skills. We are aware of the importance of our duties and the information the battalion provides during operations — explained Lance Corporal Miljković.
