Operation "Black". A scared boy Partisan in the hands of the SS Division "Prinz Eugen". This 11-year-old Gypsy was captured by members of the division's 1st regiment in the area of Donje Bare – Stoca (near Tjentište, district of Foča), near the end of the operation. The SS men took the kid along, having tied his hands behind his back, and later they fed him as well. His further destiny is unknown. (One of the boy's pictures was published after the war in the book "Forward, Prinz Eugen!" by former division commander Otto Kumm, as an example of the diversity of Partisan forces, alluding, as usual, to their irregularity.)

Operacija "Crno". Uplašeni dečak-partizan u rukama SS-divizije "Princ Ojgen". Ovo jedanaestogodišnje Ciganče zarobili su pripadnici 1. puka divizije u rejonu Donje Bare – Stoca (blizu Tjentišta, srez Fočanski), pred kraj operacije. Esesovci su mališana poveli sa sobom, vezavši mu ruke iza leđa, a kasnije su ga i nahranili. Njegova dalja sudbina nije poznata. (Jednu od dečakovih slika objavio je posle rata u knjizi "Napred, Princ Ojgen!" bivši komandant divizije Oto Kum, kao primer šarolikosti partizanskih snaga, aludirajući, po običaju, na njihovu neregularnost.)
