A second-generation peacekeeper in MINURSO

In 1991, the Swiss Armed Forces sent a Swiss Medical Unit (SMU) to Western Sahara in favour of the UN mission MINURSO. My parents were part of the mission, where they got to know each other and served for two years. 33 years after their deployment began, I am now serving as a military observer in the same mission.
