Popnikolov Dimitar

Dimitar Lambov Popnikolov was born in the village of Bombuki, Kostur region, to a poor village family.

Although he was young, none of his friends could beat him for energy, nor for his effectiveness in getting things done. Leaving his mother and sisters behind he was among the first partisans in 1946.

He was killed in the village of Konomladi - Kostur region, when the partisans were hit by the police. He fell holding firmly on to his machine gun.
