Prime Minister of Republika Srpska Savo Minić expressed gratitude to the Serb man from Ozren who, with his honor and bravery, saved Allied American pilots.
- “Their sacrifice left us a legacy to reap the laurels of pride,” Minić wrote on the social network X.
He attended today’s commemoration in Boljanić near Doboj, marking 81 years since the “Halyard” operation.
During “Halyard,” members of the Yugoslav Army in the Homeland rescued 500 Allied pilots, while 60 American airmen were evacuated from the improvised airfield in Boljanić.
