El Shatt: Memories of a Yugoslav Partisan refugee camp travelling from North Africa to Croatia

published #OA in Memory Studies

co-authored with Marijana Hameršak (#Zagreb )

We look into the history of a #WW2 #Yugoslav #refugee #camp in #Egypt and how it is remembered in #Croatia until today. In short: It was never forgotten, but integral but changing part of Yugoslav and regional Dalmatian history.

🇷🇺🇷🇸 #Serbian GRAD-S 122-mm #shells, #Yugoslav 120-mm M 74 mortar shells and M62P3 #mines in the possession of the #Russian armed #forces.

It is unclear if those are trophy's or where sold to Russia somehow.

#NowListening: Videosex

It's been a while since I listened to this #Yugoslav Hi-NRG outfit from #Ljubljana. Too long really because this album is not only a great showcase of the burgeoning #newwave scene in the country, but it also is one of the absolute best albums in the Hi-NRG genre. The tracks are tight, upbeat, fresh and quite experimental at times, like the closer track Neonska Reklama 2. This album doesn't ever disappoint!
