@mladentomic7249 There was a fighter design made many years before ww2 that is very reminiscent of the Spitfire shape, years before the Spitfire was built too.

@pedrox6863 Not to mention the stain on Croats for Jasenovac

@awkwardowl8835 I know this is true my relatives by marriage to English aunts after 1948 were Royalist from Serbia and Drazas men at Ravna Gora.

@F2000-q2z Saying they fled is not fair they had to leave to provide legal free resistance command for when their free forces in UK could be trained and return to Europe in many ways like SOE operation in Norway to stop the atomic bomb

@felixfeuerherz4855 In one small victory, Stukas had been bombing Serbian civilians and soldiers, flying down valleys, so some Serbian Chetniks climbed dangerous ridges with ZB machine guns (like the Bren) above the level of flight and when the Stukas and fighters came back they fired on them from above causing damage which cause them to abandon an attack and retreat, some crashed. A surviving German gunner in a Stuka, pilot was killed, said they had been attacked by allied fighters from above (meaning aircraft). Small victory but it saved many lives that day, my great uncle was one of those men shooting down on the Germans.

One friend of the family was Milorad Brankovic, a journalist, he was in Belgrade when it was bombed, and later captured by Germans, he escaped and fought with the Chetniks, escaping to British forces in 1945 and then to Germany to work for 2 years then to UK 1947. He died in UK 15 years ago.

@miloradnovakovic7981 My great uncle by marriage to an English aunt came to UK 1948, was a Royalist soldier of King Petar II ,from Ravna Gora with General Draza, also my other great uncle by marriage to another aunt was a member of the Royal Jugoslav Navy , a Petty Officer, blown off of his ship into the water, pulled out and captured and tortured by the natsees, he later escaped and joined the Chetniks with General Draza, they fought Germans, Italians, Ustache and others finally escaping to the British areas. They got very little help from the Allied forces when fighting and even had to rely on paper bandages as no supplies were dropped to them. I have my great uncles cap badge and also photos. Both of them were from the region of Pirot in Serbia. They also helped many allied aircrew to escape working on the Ravna Gora area. My great uncle carried a wounded man on his shoulder for hundreds of miles. Later to Austria then Germany at Wolfsberg with British forces and asked if they wanted to go to UK or USA they chose UK. I knew many of these men who were DP Displaced Persons after 1945, as family friends, they were loyal to King Peter until they died, and good Orthodox Christian hard working, honourable men.
