Mileva I. KARIŠIK
MILEVA KARIŠIK, daughter of ILIJA, born on January 26, 1926, in Vareš. Homemaker. Member of the Communist Youth League (SKOJ) since 1943. Joined the Battalion in September 1941 as a nurse at the age of 15, along with her parents Ilija N. Karišik (born in 1896, Zijemlji, Mostar, gunner) and mother Jelka R. Karišik (born in 1897, Tasovčići, Čapljina, homemaker).
