"Fury as Serbs boo Bosnian anthem.
A group of Bosnian Serb army recruits has booed the Bosnian national anthem and refused to pledge allegiance to Bosnia at a swearing-in ceremony.
...
The ceremony was the first since Bosnian authorities decided in 2003 to unify the country's armed forces."

Just recently I was reading more sad stories about the original conflict I hadn't seen before. Pity if it starts up again.
'Never again?'
