Milan Tepić (Serbian Cyrillic: Милан Тепић; 26 January 1957 – 29 September 1991) was a major in the Yugoslav People's Army during the Croatian War of Independence.

In September 1991, Tepić was tasked with defending an ammunition storage in the village of Hrgovljani just outside Bjelovar. After the defeat of the city's defenders in the Siege of Bjelovar Barracks, Tepić ordered the evacuation of the storage facility while staying behind himself. He then detonated an explosive charge to prevent the capture of the stored ammunition, weapons, and other equipment, killing himself and eleven Croatian soldiers in the process.[1]

Aftermath

Hero Milan Tepić street sign in Belgrade, Serbia

Major Milan Tepić was declared a National Hero of Yugoslavia.[2] He was the last person that received this title.[3] In Croatia he is considered a war criminal because his action threatened damage to the town of Bjelovar.[1][4][5][6][7][8]

Streets in Belgrade, Banja Luka, Kozarska Dubica[9] Vršac,[10] Zrenjanin,[11] and Sremska Mitrovica[12] are named after him. There is also a monument of Milan Tepić in his street in Belgrade. One street in Novi Sad was also named after him until being changed in 2004.[13] In Republika Srpska the Medal of Major Milan Tepić awarded for bravery is named after him.
