Summary/Abstract: The Royal Government gathered information on the situation in Yugoslavia through different channels (diplomatic representatives, news published in the press, from the official gazette, dispatch of the General Dragoljub Mihailović, etc.). The consequences from this information were depriving officers of the previously given ranks, both for those who collaborated with the occupying army in different military formations in Yugoslavia (military of Independent State of Croatia (ISC), the Nedić’s military formation and followers of the Ljotić’s “Zbor”), and the followers of the National Liberation Army which was in conflict with the occupying army in Yugoslavia whose anti-fascist commitment was evident. Of over 700 decisions on depriving from the ranks, almost 90% relate to those officers who went over to the military of ISC, then from 8% to 9% to the followers of the Nedić’s and the Ljotić’s movements who collaborated with the Germans, while about 2% were those who entered the National Liberation Movement. The Solutions on depriving from the ranks were signed by the Prime Ministers Dušan Simović and Slobodan Jovanović, and they were published in the ,,Official Gazette’’ of the Yugoslav Royal Government, then broadcasted on the London Radio or, as advertising material, were inserted into the country. By that they tried to make influence through propaganda in order to channel the events in the direction of their own interests and goals. The reported facts strongly support the picture of the overall complexity of the war in Yugoslavia.
