“In Falanovo Brdo and later in Lizoperce, the Battalion stayed for a full six days. We held meetings, sorted out our clothes and shoes, rid ourselves of lice, and bathed, truly resting. Our only obligation was to control the gases on the Neretva River, which was done through patrols, organized by platoons. One evening, as they were returning from a meeting in the village, MUSTAFA ALIKALFI\u0106 BRKO<\/a>, a student, \u0110OR\u0110E BOROZAN, a worker, MUSTAFA LAKI\u0160I\u0106<\/a>, a worker, and SABRIJA PUZI\u0106<\/a>, the platoon commissar, a student, all from Mostar, encountered a Chetnik ambush. The Chetniks crossed the Neretva using a boat and killed our comrades who were moving in a group. There was sporadic gunfire throughout the night, especially from the Chetniks on the other side of the Neretva, dispelling their own fear. And none of us paid attention to the gunfire from the railway. At dawn, the patrol discovered the dead comrades, from whom the Chetniks had taken off their clothes and shoes. A great sorrow fell over the Battalion due to the loss of these old fighters who had been with us since the beginning of the uprising.”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u0110OR\u0110O, \u0110OKA BOROZAN, son of STOJAN, born on May 6 1923 in Vihovi\u0107i near Mostar.

Until the formation of the 13th Herzegovina Brigade in May 1944, 827 fighters passed through the Battalion, and 445 of them perished, including 211 from Mostar. Of the 86 women, 43 were killed. Mostar residents also fought in many other units of the NOVJ (People's Liberation Army of Yugoslavia) and among the ranks of the activists of the National Liberation War in Mostar and other cities in Bosnia and Herzegovina... According to the records of the organization SUBNOR Mostar, every third citizen was an activist of the National Liberation War, 670 fighters were killed, 1517 were victims of fascist terror, and 206 were civilian war victims. D\u017eemil \u0160arac, article \"Sa Mostarcima\" (\"With the People from Mostar\"), Hercegovina No. 9, p. 221.\r\n\r\n\"And we were all young. Those of us who were 17, 18 years old, some seemed old even though they were not older than 25. The ones over 30 were rare. There were girls and boys with different characteristics and temperaments, robust and calm, talkative and silent, recklessly brave and rational, ordinary and above-average, semi-literate and university-educated, workers and highly skilled craftsmen, high school students and university students, skilled singers and those who couldn't carry a tune, jokers and serious-minded individuals. From all our nations and religions: Muslims, Croats, Serbs, Jews, Orthodox Christians, Catholics, Muslims, Jews, atheists, and semi-atheists. Some were from straight from Mostar and others from the surrounding locations, from Konjic and outside Konjic.\" (Hercegovina Magazine No. 7, p. 238)\r\n\r\nGroups of new fighters arrived from Mostar every 10-15 days, and the Unit quickly grew into a solid military force. The guides for the groups from Mostar were Mehmed Arap, Vasa Maslo, Serif Buri\u0107, Husa Orman, Vojo Ivani\u0161evi\u0107, and Pero Krajina, who were among the bravest and most resourceful fighters. The groups regularly brought not only weapons but also medical supplies, sugar for the hospital, writing materials, large quantities of paper, books taken from the National Library (which formed the library at Borci), and other supplies for the needs of the Unit.
