...is problematic because it makes a factually inaccurate claim in the same breath as it mentions Uzelac's ethnicity:

The Krajina Serbs, known to the rest of Europe as 'Croats', fought hard and often in Habsburg wars, and South Slav names - Vukassovitch, Wojnowitsch, Boroevic (who added the noble predicate 'von Bojna') - were all over the Austrian army lists, right up to 1918, when they included even the chief of the air force, Uzelac [...]

However, the famous Vukassovich was Josef Philipp Vukassovich, who was actually a Croat, not a Serb, at least according to the available sources. The general sentiment is warranted, but still fuzzy, because not the entire population of the Military Frontier were Serb Orthodox. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 14:06, 13 July 2014 (UTC)
