Major-General Milner's achievements, since 3 April 1989, as Force Commander of United Nations Force in Cyprus (UNFICYP), demonstrated the finest characteristics of an outstanding officer and brilliant leader. At a particularly uneasy period on the island, with considerable social unrest, his selfless commitment and professional skill had a positive impact on UNFICYP and markedly contributed to the maintenance of peace in Cyprus. He significantly enhanced the image of peacekeeping from a Canadian and United Nations perspective in a tangible and long-lasting manner.
