It's also worth noting that the only American Legion Post in the US named for a foreign national, is the Draza Mihailovich Post.

And, while President Truman awarded Draza the Legion of Merit Award, the State Department immediately "classified" it, and the award was not actually delivered until 60 years later to Draza's daughter Gordana. (Can't get my hands on the photos at the moment.) But that delivery of the award was also one of the "quietest" in history, as the MSM looked the other way and barely reported it.

Good. I hope you enjoy it and learn more about America's positive relationship and history with Serbia and the Serbs.

If you're interested in learning more about the Serbs and General Mihailovich and all the intrigues involved with their relationship with the Allies both past and present, here's a website you can check out sometime if you want to:
