Hm, It appears that 'famous' textbook Nordid Muslim officer was in reality Croat named Mihovil Vujicic.

"Mihovil" (Croat form of Michael) is a Catholic and Croat-only name. If he was a serb or a Montenegrin he would be named "Mihajlo" or something.

It's strange that all these years on Skadi and others he was considered to be a Muslim,
and also wrongly believed to be member of SS-Handschar.

I guess it is because of the 'fez' headwear. Such type of hat in Bosnia was used not only by SS, but armies of Austria-Hungary and Pavelic's Croatia as well.
