Security Council members established six safe areas in Bosnia: Sarajevo, Srebrenica, Zepa, Gorazde, Tuzla, and Bihac.
Ptes Phillip Armstrong, Martin Dowdell, and Chris Turner were killed in a road accident in Gorazde.
Gorazde has so far been spared the fate of the two other so- called "safe areas" Srebrenica and Zepa.
The peace plan calls for carving out a safe corridor that will connect Gorazde with the rest of Bosnian government territory.
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina (CNN) -- The United Nations pullout from Gorazde met up with trouble before leaving the U.N. designated safe area.
And although there is meant to be freedom of movement, no Gorazde resident dares travel in and out without an IFOR escort.
Peace has brought quiet to Gorazde but not a whole lot more.
But doubts on Gorazde's future grow as the U.N. presence there dwindles.
Security Council agreed to send armed troops to Bosnia to protect six "safe havens" -- Sarajevo, Tuzla, Zepa, Srebrenica, Gorazde and Bihac.
Conflict had broken out in what was Yugoslavia and the United Nations had enlisted the troops to patrol a safe haven in Gorazde.
The Dayton agreements in 1995 resulted in a country shared by Serbs and Bosnians, but Gorazde, located in the Serbian part, stayed Bosnian.
Part of the U.S. peace plan had reportedly called for the Bosnian government to give up the Gorazde safe area to Bosnian Serb forces.
It is in places like Gorazde -- a Muslim enclave almost surrounded by the Serb Republic -- that the need for cooperation between all sides becomes even more crucial.
Surrounded by Serbian territory and land mines, and only linked to Bosnia by a long and poor-quality road, Gorazde stands on its own, unfairly forgotten by its fellow countrymen.
The Bosnian government has vigorously opposed trading Gorazde.
