Life

Early life

Jezdić was born in Loznica, Kingdom of Serbia (Western Serbia) on 1 October 1884.[3] The Loznica Jezdići live in Donja Badanja[4] and Brnjac.[5] He finished six grades in the Šabac gymnasium, then entered the Serbian Military Academy, but he was forced to cancel his studies before the end of the third year.[3] He then entered the Law School in Belgrade, a period when he became one of the notable nationalistic youth leaders.[3] He was a fellow student with Dušan Dimitrijević, a future brother-in-arms.[6]

Chetnik action (1903–08)

He had joined the Serbian Chetnik Organization and later crossed the Serbian-Ottoman border and entered Old Serbia on 1 February 1905, joining the band (cheta) of vojvoda Đorđe Ristić.[3] He then made transfer to the band of Rista Starački. When Starački's was wounded in the hand fighting in Drenak and went and vacated in Serbia, Jezdić became the vojvoda of this unit.[3] He adopted the war name Razvigora, due to the first warm springtime wind, which made the leaves sprout (from razvitak, "sprout" and gora, "forest").[7] He participated in the great battle with the Ottoman army at Čelopek (16 April 1905).

    За њима су стизали и остали другови. Међу првим Љуба Нешић, Љуба Јездић правник и бивши питомац Војне Академије и Љуба Јовановић-Чупа, који су прешли са Ђорђем Скопљанцем. Рањен у руку на Дренку, Ђорђе се вратио у Србију, а Љуба Јездић је његову чету повео. По првом топлом пролетњем ветру, под којим се лишће развија понео је ново, војводско име Развогора.
