[nhboy (Premo)]

"The US embassy in Serbia has begun pulling out non-essential staff following the storming of the building on Thursday.

Around 1,000 protesters set fire to the embassy in Belgrade in protest at Washington's support for Kosovo's declaration of independence.

A convoy of around 40 cars carrying American staff and family members has now left Belgrade.

They are expected to remain abroad for up to 10 days, the US embassy said.

"We are not sufficiently confident that they are safe here," said US Ambassador Cameron Munter.

The embassy also offered private US citizens the chance to join the convoy to Croatia. "

I just had a good friend leave the ship on shore duty orders to Kosovo in November. I hope everything works out ok for him since he's due to retire in a couple years.
