Direct Demographic Losses Among the War Veterans of the Dubrovnik-Neretva County During the 1991-1995 Homeland War

Summary/Abstract: The paper speaks about direct demographic losses among the Croatian war veterans of the Dubrovnik-Neretva County in the Homeland War (1991-1995), this on the basis of available statistic data and relevant literature. It has been established that 245 Croatian defenders were either killed, murdered or died of the war consequences (injury, disease, suicide and other causes), which makes 0.3% of the total population of the Dubrovnik-Neretva County. Of the total number of the perished Croatian war veterans of the Dubrovnik-Neretva County, 177 or 72% of them belong to the Defense Office of Dubrovnik, which speaks about the intensity of combat activities in the Dubrovnik area. The Neretva Valley or the Defense Office of Metković accounts for 63 casualties or 26%, while the Defense Office of Korčula recorded 5 or 2% casualties. The structure of demographic losses according to the year of death clearly indicates to their space, time and age-sex selectivity. According to the number of the killed or missing soldiers of the Croatian Army, the year 1991 particularly stands out when 121 or 51% of soldiers were killed.
