General sources relating to the degree of Chetnik resistance

• As part of a general discussion on the numbers of the Chetnik movement: 'About the Chetniks in Montenegro and the Independent State of Croatia we can be more certain. At the beginning of 1943 there were some 40,000-50,000 in Montenegro and in the Italian zone of the Independent State of Croatia; in the German zone about 10,000 Bosnian Chetniks had live-and-let-live arrangements with the Croatian quisling authorities, but the number of "rebel" Chetniks actively working against the Croatin government was undoubtedly much less than that.' [This adds up to 50,000-60,000 collaborating Chetniks in early 1943, i.e. prior to the Italian capitulation.]

• As part of a general discussion on the numbers of the Chetnik movement: "Soon after the Italian collapse, most of the Chetnik units throughout the country began to serve as German auxiliaries against the Partisans on the basis of formal written or informal oral agreements, and were given arms, ammunition, and other supplies to carry on this fight. But all of these units were always counted by the Chetniks as parts of the Yugoslav Army in the Homeland" [that being of course, the official name of the Mihailović Chetnik movement].
