Merging of OOB from Royal Yugoslav Army article

I believe there is no need to merge the information from the Royal Yugoslav Army article into this list because this list provides sufficient detail for the purposes of the OOB for the invasion. The Army article breaks down the divisions to supporting arm company level, which would be fine for an OOB section of a divisional article, but is way too much detail for this list. I recommend that if a reliable source can be located for the divisional breakdowns, individual division articles be created for all the Yugoslav divisions. I am not aware of a reliable source for this information, but one may exist. Regards, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 12:41, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

MTBs?

The most famous torpedo boats of WWII Yugoslavia, Durmitor and Kajmakcalan of the Orjen class, are missing from this list. According to Conway's they were 61.7 tons full and launched between 1936 and 1939 at Lürssen. Other ships of the class are Orjen, Suvobor, Velebit, Dinara, Rudnik and Triglav. Is there a reason these are excluded, is it just a lack of information on them? (I could create stubs on Durmitor and Kajmakcalan, but ship articles seem to be mostly based around infoboxes, and I have no desire to fidget with those things. Or to find precise numbers for anything other than dates.) Srnec (talk) 01:51, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

Hi Srnec, not intentionally left out, but I only included ships of 100 tons and above. We will need to identify some good sources for the details, but I will start looking. I have copies of the relevant pages of Conways and Jane's, so I'll hunt through and add them and create stubs as I go. Good pick up, thanks. Peacemaker67 (send... over) 02:20, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

I have Divine's Navies in Exile, which has a brief description of their escape, but that's all I've got beyond those snippets I can see at Google Books. They apparently participated in the naval operations off Syria in June 1941, but doing what exactly I don't know. Srnec (talk) 03:30, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
