    Kingdom of Yugoslavia - Officer's cockade

    Recommended Posts

    This cockade belonged to my great-grandfather, i think it was introduced in 1934 after the assassination of King Aleksandar I.

    ПII stands for Петар II (Petar or Peter) the last king of Yugoslavia.

    After the fall of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in '41, my great-grandfather, like the rest of Serbian officers in the army of the

    Kingdom of Yugoslavia, was sent to POW camp in Germany. He spent 4 years in that camp and after the war ended the only

    thing he brought back from captivity was this cockade and the the dog tag he received in camp.
