The Yugoslav Partisans were the main resistance movement engaged in the fight against the Axis forces in the Balkans during World War II, the Yugoslav People’s Liberation War.
The occupying forces instituted such severe burdens on the local populace (in certain instances the army of Nazi Germany would hang or shoot indiscriminately, including women, children and the elderly, up to 100 local inhabitants for every one Wehrmacht soldier killed) that the Partisans came not only to enjoy widespread support but for many were the only option for survival.
The Partisans were under the direct command of Marshal Tito and the Yugoslav Communist Party Politburo.
On December 22nd 1941 Partisans formed 1st Proletarian Brigade – first “regular” unit able to operate outside its local area. This became the Day of Yugoslav People (National) Army, December the 22nd.
