Ivica Jerak and Jerko (Jerry) Zovko - Question

[ATJ]

Hi guys. First of all I want to express my appreciation for all the fallen warriors of US SF...RIP warriors!
Second thing why i started this thread is because I need help in the form of links to photographs and texts related to the death of two Croats who were members of U.S. SF. Namely, together with my colleague I'm gathering information about Croats KIA in Iraq and Afghanistan and we will be grateful for any link / information which you can forward to the my PM. If I missed the thread my apologies to the administrator.

I knew Ivica, great soldier. He used to try to speak in me in Croatian, while I tried to respond in Bulgarian. It was a mess.

PS, he was not SF.

PS, he was not SF.

Well, his page does state below. Was he support in SF?

Master Sgt. Jerak served in the

3rd Battalion,
10th Special Forces Group (Airborne)

and

1st Battalion,
10th Special Forces Group (Airborne)

RIP.

Not the place to debate. He's wearing a Triple Canopy in his Class A photo.

PM with any further info.......RIP Ivica.
