Description:
(Yugoslav Serb General During World War II) Dragoljub "Draža" Mihailović was a Yugoslav Serb general who led the Chetnik Detachments of the Yugoslav Army during World War II. He had a military background, having fought in the Balkan Wars and World War I. In 1941, he organized the Chetniks to resist the German invasion. Conflict with Josip Broz Tito's Partisans arose due to differing strategies and ideological beliefs. Mihailović's collaboration with Axis powers and fascist collaborators ultimately led to his capture, trial, and execution for high treason and war crimes by communist authorities in 1946.
