thread_title: More information

message: It is actually not completely true, that only 3rd Army was the only participant in the battle from Yugoslav side.
As a matter of fact, the XIV. division was in charge of all the operations in the region of Carinthia prior to 15th of May. The XIV. division was administratively joined with 3rd Army only after all the major events happened, and it was clear at all times that XIV. division is under direct command of Yugoslav army and not under command of 3rd Army.
Secondly, there were two major battles in Poljana:
On the 13th of May, a part of E Army, 104th motorized division was defeated, advancing from West (Mezica, Crna na Koroskem).
On the 14th of May, Ustaše (+ others), advanced from east (Sele -> Prevalje -> Poljana) and they acctualy broke through Partisans lines and managed to get to Bleiburg (or, Libuško polje, specifically). These units were rejected in Dravograd, when they struggled to get across Drava river earlier. Partisans and Bolgarian artillery pushed them back, and their only way to get to Austria was through Sele.
These are all the facts from the book Veliki finale na Koroškem or Grand Finale in Carinthia (Franci Strle), for which the acclaimed slovenian historian dr. Božo Repe claims that it is factographical correct.

thread_title:  axis forces destroyed? 

message: The last battle of ww2 in Europe is the Battle of Odzak, between Yugoslav partisans and HOS (Croatia) from 19. april to 25. may 1945.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And in the text the correct word for Croat army is HOS (English: Croatian armed forces) not Ustashi or Domobran. Ustashi and Domobran units in 1944. and 1945. are all marged into one army the HOS (Croatian: Hrvatske Oružane Snage)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by General Canic (talk • contribs) 19:17, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
