Youngest soldier of all armies in the First World War, Momčilo Gavrić was born in May 1906, in Trbušnica, near Loznica, on the slopes of mountain Gučevo. He was the eighth child of his parents, Alimpija and Jelene. It was noted that Momčilo took part in the Battle of Kolubara, Albanian Golgotha and was wounded at Kajmakčalan. He participated in the breakthrough of the Salonika front and demobilized the age of twelve, as the youngest sergeant in the world.
During the visit at Kajmakčalan, vojvoda Mišić was stunned when he saw in the trench eleven year old boy in uniform. He asked major Tucović what this child is doing at Kajmakcalan. Enemy killed Gavric's parents, seven brothers and sisters, and he is with us since Cer and battle of Kolubara, crossed Albania, and wounded - reported major Tucović. Same day corporal Gavrić was promoted to sergeant, and the order was read to all units of the Serbian army.
