Yugoslav People's Army
The
Yugoslav People's Army
(
Jugoslavenska/Jugoslovenska narodna armija
, JNA,
Slovene
Jugoslovanska ljudska armada
, JLA) was the
army
of the
Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia
prior to its dissolution. The YPA is rooted in
WWII
where Yugoslav
partisan force
were lead by
Josip Broz Tito
, which in 1942 become the
People's Liberation Army and Partisan detachments of Yugoslavia
(Narodnoslobodilačka vojska i partizanski odredi Jugoslavije – NOV i POJ). In March of 1945
NOVJ
was renamed the Yugoslav army (Jugoslovenska armija) and finally on December 22nd, 1951 received the adjective People's (narodna) as was the custom with
Communist
institutions. Various allegations have been made regarding the ethnic makeup of the JNA, as in the early
1990s
, about 90% of the officers were
Serbs
or
Montenegrins
.
