General Draza Mihailovich: the greatest HERO of the 20th century.

[Gritty]

I remember back in 1969 meeting the man who was Mihailovic's Chief of Staff. He survived the war and escaped to the West (I can't recall his name right now). He was here in the U.S. giving some first-person training on counter-insurgency to some of us in the military. He described how they operated and the many deprivations they went through during in the war, and how they were betrayed and the Communists took over.

When asked the question by one of us, "What are you doing here any why are you doing it now?", he replied with a very short answer; "I have already lost one country. I do not want to lose another!"

I have never forgotten that answer, nor the sad look he had on his face. It was a tragedy for all of the Balkans.
