Chronology without dates is what U peddle.

Would you like me to start a new thread will all the documented sources? It's up to you.

The date of the Mihailovic-Tito WANTED poster is 21 July 1943.

I'm aware of that. It doesn't change the fact that Mihailovic (and his forces in Sumadija specifically) slid into collaboration after that date.

Operation Halyard q.v. - From 9-10 August 1944 the first rescue of Allied airmen, was executed by Mihailovic and the OSS. Rescued fliers were 241 USAAF, 6 RAF, 12 Russians, 4 French, 9 Italians. Subsequent rescue missions were conducted by Mihailovic’s Chetniks and OSS under the nose of the Germans in occupied Serbia (Pranjani) from an airstrip improvised on a cow pasture. Operation Halyard was shut down by the OSS on 27 December 1944. The Red Army was already in Belgrade.

In the meantime, Mihailovic played a double game and collaborated with the Germans to gain an advantage against Tito's Partisans.

In the ranks of the Soviet forces were Croatian Nazis captured at Stalingrad in 1943.

Croatians weren't Nazis. Nor was the 369th Legion an Ustasha force. It was a Domobran force within the German Wehrmacht. A small fraction of that obliterated force was gang-pressed into a propaganda "Yugoslav" force by the Soviet Red Army.

The heroes wore snazzy new uniforms and traveled on new GMC trucks suppied by the USA to the USSR. Tito did not de-Nazify his Yugoslavia.

That's because Yugoslavia wasn't Nazi.

Croatia was de-Ustashized, however. The killings at Bleiburg and the Death Marches went hand in hand with Tito's statement that "for Yugoslavia to survive, the Ustashe must be destroyed!".

Croatia’s Nazis simply put on the Red Star

AN ABSOLUTE LIE.

FEEL FREE TO NAME ONE USTASHA THAT BECAME A PARTIZAN.

WHY DID TITO ACCORD AMNESTY TO SERBIAN CHETNIKS THAT JOINED THE PARTIZANS, BUT NEVER ALLOWED USTASHA TO JOIN THE PARTIZANS?

Mihailovic was captured by Tito forces in Eastern Bosnia in March 1946. Unlike Croatia’s heroes he didn’t flee to Austria and Germany, like U Nazi Croats did. — A collaborator would have.

I guess you missed the 500 Croatian Ustashi that were captured from 1946-1948 in Yugoslavia who returned to start a rebellion against the communist regime as "Krizari"...men like Bozidar Kavran and Rafael Boban.

Your knowledge of history is pathetic and like a snake you refuse to answer direct questions.

U. Never say Never. Ustasha is the Croatian equivalent of German "Nazi" in the generalized sense, if not a card-carrying member of the NSDAP (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei). A distinction without a difference. The "Nazi"-Ustasha stiff-arm salute is popular again TODAY in Croatia. "Gang-pressed"? Correct your English. Croatian Ustashas at Stalingrad were not press-ganged in going to Stalingrad. They came back with tail between their legs to Yugoslavia with the Red Army and wearing the Red Star. I'll NAME ONE USTASHA WHO BECAME A PARTIZAN: Ustasha Colonel Marko Mesic. Captured by the Red Army Croatian Colonel Mesic pleaded for incorporation into the soviet army. His photo has been posted on FREE REUBLIC. It is taken from the book "Croatian Domobranhood in World War II" by Ivan Kosutic" Page 229. Pubblished in Zagreb (capital of Croatia) in 1992, by "Skolska Knjiga" and by Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Croatia. "...During 1945, Marko Mesić retired as colonel of Yugoslav Army and lived quietly in Zagreb Croatia[5] His Stalingrad and German army service was forgotten or forgiven and he lived freely until 1948... Mesic was later freed and left alone to live quietly in a wheelchair with his brother in Zagreb until his death 1982 at old age. He is buried at Mirogoj cemetery in Zagreb Croatia." Are you going to lay a wreath on his grave? CRO wiki: hr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marko_Mesić - English: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marko_Mesić -

“... 500 Croatian Ustashi ... captured from 1946-1948 in Yugoslavia ... returned ___________
to start a rebellion against the communist regime”

Returned from what countries?

Domobran v. Ustasha BIG difference. Would you prefer to die of lung cancer or melanoma?

OH, is my face ever red!!! Theologian (and Emperor) Dio has made it all clear. “Independent” Croatia’s volunteers at Stalingrad were not card-carrying U-party members. The heroes of CRO’s Fightin’ 369th were Domobrani !!!... Wheew! Now the souls of the Russians murdered in their own homeland can at last rest in peace, knowing they were not killed by Ustashas.

Meanwhile, Dio, write to Branimir Glavas to tell to stop misusing the sacred U-word:

“like a snake you refuse to answer direct questions.”

Is Diocletian emulating Demosthenes here? Demosthenes practiced his speechifying with stones in his mouth. What is it that Dio has and where? — None of the snakes I’ve met talked. Eve reportedly conversed with one.

—hiss hiss.
