Serbia

But it is also true that Russia had enough problems of its own. Of course,
Russia openly supported the Serbian cause, and I am quite sure that Russia has
been supplying the Serbs with arms, "advisors", and perhaps money. Besides, it
is quite possible that Russian individual have been fighting on CSDS territory
as well. But all this happened "under the counter", and at the moment Russia
was definitely too weakened for playing any more active role in the region.

Perhaps there were volunteer pilots to establish the Royal Serbian AF?

>>I think that would be the case, indeed. Don't forget that the collapse of the
Russian regime also undermined its military structures. Many officers from the
army and former members of the BNB (*there*'s KGB) went their own way, and
undoubtedly part of them spread out over the world. Some of them started
carreers as mercenaries, who would fight for anyone who paid enough.
