Aleksandra's Note: So thankful that as 2016 comes to an end, some of the old-timers are still with us. Mirko Vukelic is a proud, honorable, Serbian patriot who served in WWII, and though the war ended over 70 years ago, he has remained a Chetnik in his heart and soul, loyal to the memory and legacy of General Draza Mihailovich.
I've known Mirko since the early 1990s when he was out there on the streets of Chicago during the Serbian demonstrations protesting U.S. foreign policy in the former Yugoslavia, particularly in regards to the Serbs. Always standing tall, always warm and friendly, yet passionate and determined, Mirko has remained loyal and true all these years.
Very glad that Predrag Rudovic - Niko has captured this live interview with Mirko Vukelic this year. He's got a lot to say and he knows his history firsthand. The interview is in the Serbian language.
God bless you, Mirko, and may you remain among us for a long time to come.
Sincerely,
Aleksandra Rebic
Chicago
