Dalibor Vašarević

Dalibor Vašarević was born on February 9, 1976 in Slavonski Brod, the town with the highest number of children killed during the Homeland War. On May 27, 1992, at the age of 16, during a shelling of Slavonski Brod he suffered a serious arm injury. Four of his friends were killed in that incident, whilst he and another two friends were injured. His recovery was far from certain and the treatment took a very long time. He spent some time being treated in Weimar, Germany, which acted as a 'town-friend' during the war and offered the possibility of treatment for child victims. He is a civilian invalid of the Homeland War (40% invalidity) and he acquired the right to invalidity benefit. Today he lives and works in Slavonski Brod.
