La mwbaImplementation Force (mwbqIFOR) è stata una forza multinazionale della mwbgNATO dispiegata in mwbwBosnia ed Erzegovina per un mandato di un anno dal 20 dicembre mwca1995 al 20 dicembre mwcq1996 sotto il nome in codice mwcgmwcwOperazione Joint Endeavor per implementare l'accordo di pace in Bosnia and Herzegovina come successore della forza delle mwdaNazioni Unite mwdqUNPROFOR ed è stata la più grande missione militare nella storia della mwdgNATO con circa mwdw60 000 soldati provenienti da diverse nazioni dell'mweaAlleanza Atlantica.

The [[Dayton Agreement]] or GFAP, signed in [[Paris]] on [[14 December]] 1995 resulted from a long series of events. Notably, the failures of [[Peace plans offered before and during the Bosnian War|EU led peace plans]], the August 1995 Croat [[Operation Storm]] and its aftermath, the Bosnian Serb atrocities, in particular the [[Srebrenica massacre]], and the seizure of [[UNPROFOR]] peacekeepers as [[human shield]]s against NATO's [[Operation Deliberate Force]]. Admiral [[Leighton Smith]] (Commander in Chief Allied Forces Southern Europe (CINCSOUTH)) acted as the Joint Force Commander for the operation (also known as ''Commander IFOR'' (COMIFOR)). He commanded the operation from HQs in [[Zagreb]] and later from March 1996 from the Residency in [[Sarajevo]]. [[Michael Walker (generale)|Lt Gen Michael Walker]], Commander ARRC ([[Allied Command Europe]] Rapid Reaction Corps) acted as the Land Component Commander for the Operation, commanding from HQ ARRC (Forward) based initially in [[Kiseljak]] and from late January 1996 from HQ ARRC (Main) [[Ilidza]]. This was NATO's first ever out-of-area land deployment. The Land Component's part of the operation was known as Operation Firm Endeavour. On [[21 December]] [[1996]] the task of IFOR was taken over by [[SFOR]]. At its height, IFOR involved troops from 32 countries and numbered some 54,000 troops in-country (BiH) and around 80,000 involved troops in total (with support and reserve troops stationed in Croatia, Hungary, Germany, Italy and also on ships in the Adriatic). In the initial phases of the operation, much of the initial composition of the IFOR consisted of units re-flagged from the UNPROFOR operation. The tasks of the Land Component were carried out by three Multi National Divisions: *[[Mostar]] MND(SE) - French led. *[[Banja Luka]] MND(SW) - British led. *[[Tuzla]] MND(N) - American led.
