Camp Casablanca is a military base located in the city of Suva Reka, Kosovo. It is home to many foreign NATO troops, including German forces, and it occasionally houses U.S. troops as well. Austrian and Swiss troops are also located here. [cite web|url=http://www.vtg.admin.ch/internet/vtg/en/home/themen/einsaetze/peace/swisscoy/factsheet.html|title=Swiss Participation within the Kosovo Force|publisher=Swiss Federal Department of Defence, Civil Protection and Sports|date=2008-03-04|accessdate=2008-03-07] The camp was originally established by the German Army to maintain a NATO peacekeeping presence after the Bosnian and Kosovo conflicts of the 1990s. The base is still operational as of 2007.

Since 2000 the Camp only housed Austrian, German and Swiss troops. It is the Headquarters of the Task Force "DULJE", named after the mountain pass near Suva Reka.
