  Aleksandar Obrenović - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
King Aleksandar of Serbia (Serbian Cyrillic: Александар Обреновић) (August 14, 1876 - June 11, 1903), was king of Serbia from 1889 to 1903.
In 1893, King Aleksandar, being then in his seventeenth year, made his notable first coup d'état, proclaimed himself of full age, dismissed the regents and their government, and took the royal authority into his own hands.
King Aleksandar tried to reconcile political parties by unveiling a liberal constitution of his own initiative, introducing for the first time in the constitutional history of Serbia the system of two chambers (skupshtina and senate).

Aleksandar told me that his father was a Serbian Captain and POW in OFLAG XIII-B at Hammelburg.
He sent us some 30 photos from his father which were never published and they show the daily live in OFLAG XIII-B. I would like to use this opportunity to thank Aleksandar for his cooperation and assistance.
My father never wrote his war memories and he used to tell us all of this always making it look like funny stories and anecdotes not to make us feel the real suffering he went through, I think that you that were there could understand this.
