Abstract
Under the oppressive Serb-dominated regime of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, A. Moškov became an ardent Croatian nationalist. After he was forced to emigrate in 1933, he joined the Ustashe movement and pledged his allegiance to A. Pavelić. In 1941, after the Independent State of Croatia (NDH) was proclaimed, Moškov returned to Croatia and became a prominent member of the Croatian military. After the dissolution of the NDH, he was captured by the British forces and extradited to Tito's communists. Even though the circumstances of his death are not preserved, he was undoubtedly sentenced to death by communist military tribunal in 1948.
