Miodrag "Mija" Milosavljevi
Yugoslavian Army
from:Trstenik. Serbia, ex-Yugoslavia
My grandfather, Miodrag Milosavljevi, (1911-1976) was a POW Number 110098 in Stalag X-B. He was a Serbian from Yugoslavia, taken prisoner in Trstenik (Yu), taken to Kruševac(Yu) and then to Germany. The only info on his time as a POW comes from a Red Cross evidence. I am sending his photo, which has a following text translated from Serbian on the back side: A group of Wardens from the Course 4-18 June 1949 53 C.M.D. Training Wing Cadre Course No 9 Osnabrück. He is at the far right in the bottom row.
What puzzles me is that I have a photo of his children, with the text saying that he received that photo as a POW. Photo was taken on September-10-1943, and he added in his own handwriting that he received it on November-26-1943 at Birkenau (which he misspelled as Brikenau). That photo has a censorship stamp, with the censor's ID number 78 and "geprüft" text, but unfortunately, the crucial information on the stamp is not visible - number of the camp after the word "Stalag". I see it as a mystery, since he was never supposed to be in Auschwitz/Birkenau.
I am named after him.
