REMZIJA \u0106I\u0160I\u0106, son of SALIH, born on May 15, 1925, in Mostar, former student of the Craft School in Mostar, carpenter, the League of Communist Youth (SKOJ) member since 1941, in the Battalion since May 1942. One of the members of the SKOJ committee. Fighter, killed in the night of June 14-15 1942 in Bijela near Konjic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An initiative of the youth regarding the festive celebration of May 1, 1942, was recorded: “On the eve of May 1, among other things, the youth made a huge slogan ‘Long Live May 1’ on the Pokline hill using a large amount of wood, which they set on fire so that it appeared as if the hill was burning. The slogan was visible in Konjic, which is 2.5 km away in a straight line.”<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n Younger brother of the fallen fighter Ibrahim \u0106i\u0161i\u0107<\/a>. A street in Mostar bears the name of the \u0106i\u0161i\u0107 brothers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n EXCERPTS FROM LITERATURE:<\/p>\n\n\n\n From Childhood: “The courtyard of the neighborhood mosque overgrown with weeds, where the last tombstone had nestled who knows when, with fallen apricot trees and crumbling walls, provided us with an invincible shelter for the loot brought from our raids in the orchards, gardens, and courtyards of Brankovac and Mazoljice neighborhoods. There we hid the stolen iron bars, the defense of the garden of Mostar’s Paher bookstore; apricots and pears from the orchard of Age \u0106i\u0161i\u0107, whose son Remzija, our friend, stood guard to warn us if his father approached in bad weather; grapes from the courtyard slope of the merchant Alikalfi\u0107, while his son Suljo would hide his mother – their father had sent her a message through an unknown passerby to come quickly – better to the shop in Carina.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Life in the unit: “They loved actions, and the hardest thing for them was the constant immobility in positions, especially during winter and spring days when the frost was biting or the rain penetrated through their bones. In those situations, famous Mostar jokes came to the forefront, creating a cheerful atmosphere in the company. During those spring days, the first cherries had ripened in gardens near Konjic. Mostar fighters would descend into the gardens at night to pick them. When Commander Rade \u0160panac found out about it, he prohibited them from doing so, as someone could get in trouble. However, since discipline was not their virtue, Enes Orman, Hivza Brki\u0107<\/a>, Meho Taso<\/a>, and Remze \u0106i\u0161i\u0107<\/a> continued their actions. As they went individually, unaware of each other, comical situations occurred. It happened that one of them was already up in the tree, sitting among the branches and picking cherries. Later, another one arrived under the same cherry tree and suddenly shouted through the darkness, ‘Who’s up there?’ and the one above replied, ‘Who’s down there?’ As these incidents happened right near Italian positions, such surprises were a big deal for them.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n “On the night of June 14\/15 1942 (…) the following fighters were killed in the positions: HIVZIJA BRKI\u0106<\/a> BAUK, a student from Mostar, SULJO CILI\u0106, a student from the village of Djevor near Jablanica, the first secretary of the party cell during the formation of the company in Bijela, REMZIJA \u0106I\u0160I\u0106<\/a><\/em>, a worker from Mostar, IBRO DIZDAREVI\u0106<\/a>, a worker from Mostar, AHMET GRCI\u0106, a student from Konjic, MEHO HINDI\u0106, a peasant from Jablanica, MUJO HUBANA<\/a>, a peasant from Humili\u0161ani near Mostar. MEHMED \u0160APUH<\/a>, a worker from Mostar, and MUHAMED TASLAMAN<\/a> BEG, a worker from 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.

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.
