Today, at the Air Defence Command in Zemun a promotion was held for the collection of works “One hundred years of Air Force”, which includes works by over 40 authors that attended the symposium in 2012 in the course of marking the jubilee of 100 years of Serbian Air Force.

Greeting the guests, including Deputy Head of the General Staff of Serbia Lieutenant General Jovica Draganic, Air Defence Commander Major General Ranko Zivak reminded of the importance of the mentioned jubilee and conveyed his content that his generation was honored to have organized its marking.
