"Remembering General Mihailovich" by King Peter II

A KING’S HERITAGE, CHAPTER XIV:

“Mihailović was sentenced to death in June [July] 1946 and executed on July 17. The whole democratic and free world was loud in con­demnation of this act as the greatest political murder in history. But the leaders of the Allies seemed to have forgotten their friend and ally, the first man in occupied Europe to raise an army and fight against odds such as had never been known before. It is only today, nine years after his betrayal, and after experiencing the terrors and brutality of the Communist system in the wars in Korea and Indo-China, that it is realised how great a wrong was done to the magnificent fighter who had to defend himself against his second enemy before his first was properly defeated. Today his second enemy is the enemy of us all.”
