Branko Bogunović

Branko "Brane" Bogunović (; 24 November 1911 – 1945) was one of the commanders of Serb rebels during the Drvar uprising who later became military officer of the Yugoslav Army in the Fatherland.

On 27 July 1941, Bogunović commanded the Serb rebels who captured Bosansko Grahovo from Ustaše. He joined Yugoslav Army in the Fatherland (Chetniks) and became the commander of the "Gavrilo Princip" Chetnik Regiment, a part of Dinara Chetnik Division. After about a year, the regiment under his control became a brigade. In 1942 Bogunović was awarded by Slobodan Jovanović, president of the Yugoslav Government in Exile with Karađorđe's Star, while commander of the Dinara Chetnik Division, Ilija Trifunović Birčanin promoted Bogunović to the rank of voivode.

Bogunović and other local Chetnik commanders temporarily accepted the Italians and German occupation. He is responsible for the massacre of the Croat civilians in Bosansko Grahovo. In December 1944, Bogunović was captured by the communist partisans and died in prison in 1945. Provided by Wikipedia
