LIKA INFANTRY UNITS IN THE AUSTRO-HUNGARIAN MILITARY IN BATTLES DURING 1918
Nikola Tominac
Sažetak
This contribution is dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the First World War and members
of the 79th Infantry Regiment of the Joint Forces from Otočac (K.u.K. Otočaner Infaterieregiment
Graf Jellačić Nr. 79.), more famous as the “Jelačićevci” and the 26th Homeland Infantry Regiment
from Karlovac from 42nd Homeland Infantry Division in whose formation was the third battalion
of men from Lika from Gospić. In it is described their participation in the last year of the war.
On the basis of available specific literature and source archive material from the holdings
of the Austrian state archive - Österreichisches Staatsarchiv (ÖeStA) – Kriegsarchiv (KA) and the
Croatian State Archive in Zagreb (HDA), primarily from the preserved operational documentation,
battle reports, lists of the losses, registry books of the dead and other available documentation, the
author processes the course of the battles during 1918, in other words, the last year of the war. The
military terminology has been adapted to today’s official Croatian terminology, and where that was
not possible the Croatian and Austro-Hungarian terms are cited alongside each other, particularly
for military ranks and formations.
