Dimitrije Begović comes from the famous Begović lineage, which Marko Miljanov also writes about in „Examples of courage and bravery“, as a respectable and wealthy family that produced numerous heroes and the legendary flag bearer Beg Ivanov, whose saber is kept in the Cetinje Museum. Dimitrije Begović was born in 1890 in Serbia, in Dobri Dol. He was not only a brave fighter and a successful commander, but also an organizer of the Comite movement and one of the founders of the Jablanica Comite detachment. He trained as an officer. He married a bride from the prominent Perović family in Rovac and settled in Stubli. In the period from the end of November 1915, when he arrived in Stubla with the rank of second lieutenant to heal his wounds from the Battle of Cers, until July 1916, Dimitrije Begović, together with several local patriots, among whom the priest Dimitrije Dimitrijević, known as Mita Komita, stood out, diligently, formed a Comite organization in the Toplica area. A personnel base was created for the Jablanica Committee detachment, which, upon formation, was divided into three companies with commanders – company leaders. By the beginning of the uprising, the detachment had grown to 1,200 fighters. Among the insurgents were 33 women, three Russians, 41 Albanians, one Czech, and one Bulgarian. From the very foundation of the Jablanica detachment, Dimitrije Begović commanded the first company of that detachment as a platoon leader. During its existence, that company counted between 120 and 180 insurgents. After the departure of Duke Vlahović, Dimitrije Begović became the commander of the entire Jablanica detachment on June 11, 1917, and thus the duke. Dimitrije Begović is mentioned first as a second lieutenant, and later as a lieutenant of the Serbian army and the leader of the Comitas in the Toplica uprising in several writings, especially in the books of Jovanka Begović „Ispaćena žena“, Dobrosav Turović’s „Heroes of the Iron Regiment“ and „Toplica Uprising by Milivoj Perović“.Little is known that, before he and other patriots started the Toplica Uprising, he participated in the battles on Cer, where he was wounded. For the sake of recovery, he was sent to home treatment, which he carried out mainly in the house of his wife’s family in Medveđa. According to the allegations of Jovanka Begović and Dobrosav Turović, he, at the call of the Bulgarians to surrender, although seriously wounded, activated the last bomb and blew up several enemy soldiers with it. The legend spread among the people (surprisingly, close to the Bulgarian official descriptions of this event) says that the badly wounded Begović replied to the Bulgarians that, as an officer, he would surrender only to an officer. The Bulgarian officers were eager for the reward in money and advancement in rank, they pushed their way to the front lines – wanting to personally capture the Komite leader who was, not only for all of them but also for their elders, fear and trepidation.When they got close enough to him, Dimitrije activated several hand grenades which he placed on his chest, under the officer’s blouse. As a result of the explosion, two Bulgarian officers died on the spot, and the third later – from his injuries. Desperate with rage, the Bulgarian soldiers were fending for themselves on the dead Begović. Angry that he did not reach them alive, that, according to Bulgarian war customs, they would torture him brutally to death, they cut off his head and carried it on a stake in a cart through the Serbian villages, exclaiming: „Here is the head of your famous hero Dimitrije Begović. There is no one left to defend you!“ Thus, on a cold night in February 1918, just a few months before the liberation of Serbia, on the Radan mountain, not far from the Prolom spa, Dimitrije Begović, one of the greatest commissars of the Toplica Uprising, ended his heroic life. And his last gesture is a military success.
