George Alfred Joulwan is a retired United States Army general. He finished his military career as the Commander-in-Chief, United States European Command and Supreme Allied Commander in 1997. Over a military career spanning 36 years, General Joulwan fought in Vietnam, Panama, and El Salvador. As the Supreme Allied Commander, he conducted over 20 operations in the Balkans, Africa, and the Middle East. In all of those operations, he never lost a single soldier to hostile fire. When the United States sent forces into Bosnia in the 1990s, General Joulwan played the leading role in troop deployment, earning praise by President Clinton upon Joulwan's retirement. As SACEUR, General Joulwan created a strategic policy for the United States military engagement in Africa, which was the first time in U.S. history that such a policy had been crafted. The West Point Association of Graduates credit his cooperation with Russia during the Bosnian campaign for the basis of the NATO-Russian Founding Act signed in 1997.
