Talk:4th Army (Kingdom of Yugoslavia)

Pre-war career

Are there any details about the division before 1941? Surely, it must have existed throughout the 1930s. If not, this must be clarified. Cohen (1996) p. 14 says the "Fourth Army District" in Croatia was, on paper, commanded by General Božidar Janković in 1920, but since Janković was "old and infirm", the real power lied with Milan Nedić. 23 editor (talk) 15:56, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

It appears that there was a 4th Army District (territorially-based) going back to at least 1931, but no 4th Army per se. Each Army District apparently had a deputy commander who was responsible for the district, for the 4th Army District it was apparently Jevrem Damjanović between 1931 and 1936, then Đorđe Arandjelović, who retired in 1940 but was designated as deputy commander 4th Army when it was mobilised in 1941. That makes sense, because Yugoslavia did not have the money to be mobilising whole armies (really corps) for manoeuvres in peacetime. I've added in a sentence using Krzak to explain the deal.

Declension?

Can you explain the difference between Geografskom institutu and Geografski institut? Naturally, the change screws up the referencing, so I just want to make sure I understand. Thanks, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 05:29, 19 June 2014 (UTC)

Geografski institut - Nominativ (first), Geografskom institutu - Dativ (third)--Gorran (talk) 05:50, 19 June 2014 (UTC)

I never could get those grammatical distinctions in languages other than English. Latin wasn't a crowning achievement for me. Thanks, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 06:17, 19 June 2014 (UTC)

Serbo-croatian literature

Two books by Velimir Terzić: SLOM KRALJEVINE JUGOSLAVIJE; uzroci i posledice poraza - book 1 and book 2 are the most appreciated books on April War 1941 among serbo-croatian speaking military historians.--Gorran (talk) 06:03, 19 June 2014 (UTC)
