Ravna Gora, Serbia

Ravna Gora ("Равна Гора") is a highland in Serbia. Traditionally, it is known as the birthplace of the modern Chetnik movement under the leadership of Dragoljub Mihailović in 1941. Ravna Gora was the site of a celebration marking the 50th anniversary of VE day in 1995. Among others, the celebration was attended by Major Richard L. Felman of the United States Air Force who was one of approximately 500 US airmen rescued by the Chetniks during World War II.
