    2. Exhibition "Vojvoda Petar Bojović - Decorations of Glory and Honor" (Војвода Петар Бојовић - знамења славе и части) will be held at Serbian Presidency building starting from tomorrow! 
      Vojvoda's son Dobroslav gave the decorations to Kosta Rakić to safeguard them around 60 years ago! Mr. Rakić who is now 94 years old decided it's finally time to present them to the public! According to information I found in couple of articles the collection consists of 26 decorations (not all were saved) including Order of the Star of Karađorđe 2nd class and Order of the White Eagle with swords 1st class!

    3. Amazing, thank you so much for sharing those photos with us!
      The orders that caught my attention are Serbian White Eagle with Swords, Montenegrin Order of Danilo and extremely rare Order of Saint Peter of Cetinje! Any idea who might be the recipient? Did you by any chance made some closeup photos of it? I'd be very grateful if you could share them with us.
      Among the medals I noticed Serbian I Balkan War Commemorative Medal, Albanian Retreat Medal and Golden Miloš Obilić Bravery Medal.
