Chronology without dates is what U peddle.

The date of the Mihailovic-Tito WANTED poster is 21 July 1943.

Operation Halyard q.v. - From 9-10 August 1944 the first rescue of Allied airmen, was executed by Mihailovic and the OSS. Rescued fliers were 241 USAAF, 6 RAF, 12 Russians, 4 French, 9 Italians. Subsequent rescue missions were conducted by Mihailovic’s Chetniks and OSS under the nose of the Germans in occupied Serbia (Pranjani) from an airstrip improvised on a cow pasture. Operation Halyard was shut down by the OSS on 27 December 1944. The Red Army was already in Belgrade.

In an operation lasting from 14 September to 24 November 1944, the Soviet Army and Partisans expelled the Germans from Belgrade.

In the ranks of the Soviet forces were Croatian Nazis captured at Stalingrad in 1943. The heroes wore snazzy new uniforms and traveled on new GMC trucks suppied by the USA to the USSR. Tito did not de-Nazify his Yugoslavia. Croatia’s Nazis simply put on the Red Star until the time was ripe, with re-unified Germany (1989), to scuttle — again — Yugoslavia, the lifeboat that had saved their sorry butts after both world wars.

Mihailovic was captured by Tito forces in Eastern Bosnia in March 1946. Unlike Croatia’s heroes he didn’t flee to Austria and Germany, like U Nazi Croats did.
— A collaborator would have.

Would you like me to start a new thread will all the documented sources? It's up to you.

The date of the Mihailovic-Tito WANTED poster is 21 July 1943.

I'm aware of that. It doesn't change the fact that Mihailovic (and his forces in Sumadija specifically) slid into collaboration after that date.

Operation Halyard q.v. - From 9-10 August 1944 the first rescue of Allied airmen, was executed by Mihailovic and the OSS. Rescued fliers were 241 USAAF, 6 RAF, 12 Russians, 4 French, 9 Italians. Subsequent rescue missions were conducted by Mihailovic’s Chetniks and OSS under the nose of the Germans in occupied Serbia (Pranjani) from an airstrip improvised on a cow pasture. Operation Halyard was shut down by the OSS on 27 December 1944. The Red Army was already in Belgrade.

In the meantime, Mihailovic played a double game and collaborated with the Germans to gain an advantage against Tito's Partisans.

In the ranks of the Soviet forces were Croatian Nazis captured at Stalingrad in 1943.

Croatians weren't Nazis. Nor was the 369th Legion an Ustasha force. It was a Domobran force within the German Wehrmacht. A small fraction of that obliterated force was gang-pressed into a propaganda "Yugoslav" force by the Soviet Red Army.

The heroes wore snazzy new uniforms and traveled on new GMC trucks suppied by the USA to the USSR. Tito did not de-Nazify his Yugoslavia.

That's because Yugoslavia wasn't Nazi.

Croatia was de-Ustashized, however. The killings at Bleiburg and the Death Marches went hand in hand with Tito's statement that "for Yugoslavia to survive, the Ustashe must be destroyed!".

Croatia’s Nazis simply put on the Red Star

AN ABSOLUTE LIE.

FEEL FREE TO NAME ONE USTASHA THAT BECAME A PARTIZAN.

WHY DID TITO ACCORD AMNESTY TO SERBIAN CHETNIKS THAT JOINED THE PARTIZANS, BUT NEVER ALLOWED USTASHA TO JOIN THE PARTIZANS?

Mihailovic was captured by Tito forces in Eastern Bosnia in March 1946. Unlike Croatia’s heroes he didn’t flee to Austria and Germany, like U Nazi Croats did. — A collaborator would have.

I guess you missed the 500 Croatian Ustashi that were captured from 1946-1948 in Yugoslavia who returned to start a rebellion against the communist regime as "Krizari"...men like Bozidar Kavran and Rafael Boban.

Your knowledge of history is pathetic and like a snake you refuse to answer direct questions.
