In 1992, after the death of Srpska garda commander Giška, "Fond komandantu srpske garde Đorđa Božovića", a fund dedicated to providing humanitarian aid, was set up in his honor.

''Zaveštanje'' was released some time in 1994 by Fond Giška. The single has ten speeches with four speeches on the A side and six speeches on the B side. The author of these speeches, Uroš D.

Zaveštanje (Serbian Cyrillic: Завештање, lit. "Legacy") is a single by Dragutin Knežević Krunica, released some time in 1993 by Fond Giška. It is one of few war-related albums relating to founding Serbian Guard member Đorđe Božović Giška.

Background

Logo for the fund circa 1992.

In 1992, after the death of Srpska garda commander Giška, "Fond komandantu srpske garde Đorđa Božovića", a fund dedicated to providing humanitarian aid, was set up in his honor. This fund was founded by Giška's surviving family, SPO members, and prominent musician Bora-Čorba with its primary goal of financially aiding those affected by war. Giška's mother, Milena Božović served as the president of the fund the entire time it was active.[1]

The fund was advertised the following year in the publication, Srpska reč for roughly two months until reporting of Vuk Drašković's second arrest by Yugoslav authorities overshadowed any and all advertising in the publication.[2] Despite its relatively short stint in the publication, the fund was still able to get sponsors and on one occasion, was able to host a concert for humanitarian aid. It is unknown when the fund went defunct with 1999 being the most recent year the fund was known to be active.

Release

Baptism of Giška's godson at a church in Medak, Croatia (15 September 1991).

Zaveštanje was released some time in 1993 by Fond Giška. Its only known advertisement would be featured in a single issue of Srpska reč. The single was sold for five dinars each and primarily distributed through a money order. All proceeds would go to Serbian families affected by the war and the wounded.[3]

The single has ten speeches total with four speeches on the A side and six speeches on the B side. The author of these speeches and board member of the fund, Uroš D. Urošević,[4] performs the third and tenth speech (dubbed "legacies" on the inner j-card) on the single. The background music provided are from other songs in Krunica's discography, most notably from his poem recitals heard in Srpska zora and Srpska zora-2.

Similar to another Giška-related single, Slava junaku, the subject matter of the tape is on social commentary on the state of affairs in Yugoslavia and a memorial for Giška. The cover art is a mirrored picture taken from a baptism in a Medak church. The image is one of the last pictures taken of Giška before he died. It is the same photo set as the cover image used for Slava junaku.[5] Although not confirmed, the similarities between the two releases suggest that they may be related towards each other (i.e. published by the same label).

Due to the lack of advertising and unconventional way of distribution, it is likely that the single faded into obscurity not too long after its release. A lot showcasing the single's cover was discovered, though it would not be until 2024 where user RandomAtribute20k would obtain a copy and post its contents online.
