Croatian?

[edit]

Drljević was either Montenegrin or Serbian. In what way was he Croatian? --Thewanderer (talk) 17:59, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As "commander" of Ustasha-styled Montenegrin People's Army and activist in NDH. --PaxEquilibrium (talk) 18:58, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
In the text, Montenegrin People's Army is called a military formation of Chetniks (Serbs). Then, here above, it is Ustasha-styled (Croatian). Interesting... and very biased, politically motivated, presentation. —Preceding comment added by Mare.adriaticum (talkMare.adriaticum) 20:34, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That's simply not acceptable. It's akin to styling Ustashe as Germans for collaboration with the Nazis. --Thewanderer (talk) 19:50, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Not quite. Sekula lived in NDH and worked for the Ustashe - not in Montenegro. --PaxEquilibrium (talk) 21:28, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
For example the Ustashi forces that fought at the Eastern Front on the Battle of Stalingrad, they could be "German military personnel of World War II". --PaxEquilibrium (talk) 21:33, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Also, in 1944 he accepted Stedimlija's research of a distinct Montenegrin nation of Red Croat origins and tried to establish a Montenegrin Orthodox Church, but failed to do so, accepting Stedimlija's Croatian Orthodox Church. --PaxEquilibrium (talk) 22:10, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

G'day. I think it is pretty clear that he was born in the Principality rather than the Kingdom. Am I wrong here? Cheers, Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 07:38, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No, you're right. I think Zoupan added the Kingdom category because of Drljević's role in King Nikola's government. 23 editor (talk) 12:32, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

(As per scope: Principality (1852–1910), Kingdom (1910–1918), when was Sekula active? Not before 1914.).--Zoupan 15:44, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well that's fine, but surely he's both then? Born in one, active in another? What about Yugoslavia? Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 22:37, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Milhist ACR?

[edit]

G'day 23 editor, do you reckon old mate is ready for a run at Milhist ACR, or are there reliable sources that haven't been looked at yet? I acknowledge he's more your work than mine, but I'd be happy to co-nominate, if you were comfortable with that. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 06:16, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There's plenty of Serbo-Croat sources that haven't been used (fully, or at all), particularly the books about Pavle Djurisic, Momcilo Djujic and Dragisa Vasic that can be found at Znaci. Also, I reckon Milazzo and Hoare have some things to say about Drljevic. Unfortunately, I don't have access to the latter two. At the moment, I don't think the article's ACR-worthy but I'm sure it can get there once it's been expanded. 23 editor (talk) 15:46, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, I have both, so I'll put him on my list to expand. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 03:58, 24 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
