Balkan Tragedy by Zvonimir Vuckovich & Dimitrije Djordjevic

Yugoslavia, 1941-1946 - Memoirs of a Guerilla Fighter

Zvonimir Vuckovich served as a lieutenant in the Yugoslav Resistance during the World War II. Among his exploits was the rescue of 500 American air crew who had been shot down behind German lines. This document is a valuable source for a little known theatre of the 1939-1945 conflict. An important source for the study of the Yugoslav resistance during the Nazi occupation in World War II, these documents present a gripping account of a young lieutenant - an idealist and pro-Western democrat - active in the resistance. Among other feats, Vuckovich organized the rescue of 500 American pilots shot down behind enemy lines in 1944; they were successfully returned to the Allied command in Italy.
