Srbi na Korzici u Velikom ratu - 1. deo
Serbs on Corsica in the Great War: Part 1
Sažetak
Istoriografija srpskog naroda iz Velikog rata odala je dužno poštovanje velikim bitkama i slavnim pobedama, nije izostavila golgotu povlačenja srpske vojske i naroda, Solunski front i druge frontove. Manje je poznata sudbina 35.000 srpskih regruta, raseljenih mladih ljudi, saga srpske izbegle kolonije širom evropskih prostora i dalje. Cilj ovog rada je da istakne sudbine srpskih izbeglica na Korzici i oda priznanje njihovim isceljiteljima, koji su dolazili sa različitih strana sveta kao predstavnici diplomatskih, humanitarnih i medicinskih misija Srbije, Francuske i Velike Britanije. Život izbegle srpske kolonije na Korzici u Francuskoj bio je organizovan zalaganjem predstavnika kraljevske Srpske vlade u Francuskoj, Francuskog komiteta za pomoć ranjenicima, bolesnicima i izbeglicama, Srpskog potpornog fonda, Bolnica škotskih žena, lokalnih vlasti i brojnih pojedinaca na Korzici. Posebno je istaknuta Bolnica škotskih žena na Korzici, koja je za srpske vojnike i srpske izbeglice organizovala Jedinicu Korzika, sa sedištem u Ajaču, izolovanu bolnicu u Lazaretu, dok su ambulante i dispanzeri bili raspoređeni po selima. U vreme kada se obeležava stogodišnjica od Prvog svetskog rata uzvraćamo zahvalnost za posvećenost i požrtvovanje svim stranama, posebno Bolnici škotskih žena i dr Elsi Inglis, osnivaču i rukovodiocu ove medicinske misije.
Abstract
Historians and historical research of the role of the Serbian nation in the Great War give ample respect and recognition of the great battles and great victories. However, the exodus of the Serbian people and its armies out of Serbia is also not forgotten. Neither are the Salonika Front, nor other battlefronts. Less well known and researched is the fate of 35,000 young Serbian recruits, the young people dispersed to distant lands. This research is concentrated on the fate of the Serbian refugees in Corsica, on those who helped them, looked after them, and treated them to recovery, and who themselves came there from other parts of the world. Those Serbian refugees in Corsica were looked after by the representatives of diplomatic, humanitarian, and medical missions from Serbia, France, and Great Britain. The life of the Serbian refugee colony in Corsica was organized, financed, and supported by the Royal Serbian Government in exile in France, the French Relief Committee for the wounded, sick, and refugees, the Serbian Relief Fund, the Scottish Women's Hospitals for Foreign Service, the local authorities, and numerous individuals in Corsica. We have paid particular attention to the Scottish Women's Hospital in Corsica that provided a special hospital unit called 'Corsica Unit,' situated in Ajaccio, with the isolation ward in Lazaret, and ambulances and dispensaries located in various villages, where the Serbian refugees were billeted. At the time of centennial commemorations of the Great War, we want to express our profound gratitude to the humanitarian and medical assistance from all quarters, and in particular to the Scottish Women's Hospitals, and Dr. Elsie Inglis, the founder and the leader of this medical mission.
