12.1916 K.u.K feldpost card 'Kreiskomando Kragujevac' to Zagreb, Croatia



 02.12.1916 K.u.K feldpost card from 'Kreiskomando Kragujevac' in occupied Serbia to Zagreb, Croatia. Kreiskomando was kuk military command of an occupied city.  Trilingual feldpost printed card in Croatian, Hungarian and German was used. Card was mailed via K.u.K Etappenpostamt Kragujevac. 

What's  unique with this feldpost card is that it was mailed by a WOMAN ! This is the first card I have seen written by an Croatian woman serving with K.u.k army. She states her name Ljubica Hercezi  and she is "K.u.k Lehrerin in Kragujevac Krieskomando", while official purple cancel reads Ökonomieamt, hence she is a teacher working in a economic office of the K.u.K. command

Text is in Croatian, she sends greetings to a lady friend in Zagreb, and writes she had appendicitis, and maybe she will return home for a recovery.
