Summary/Abstract: This is an authentic testimony from the scene about the most difficult battle in Gracanica region, from the beginning of the war for Bosnia and Herzegovina (1992–1995) in which in one day 10 fighters from among the defense line of Bosnia and Herzegovina were killed and many more were wounded. The same day, Gracanica suffered the most serious destruction by artillery weapons from the Serbian positions on Ozren. The attempts of the infantry attack on the very city were blocked. The author has performed the difficult and responsible duty of the President of the Crisis Staff, that is, the President of the War Council of the local community Stjepan Polje both before and during the battle, as well as in the later period, all until the end of the war. This contribution is based on the excerpts from his book of memories, published as a copyright release titled My zone of responsibility, in 2008 in Gracanica.
