Seressaner

The Seressaner (German: Serezaner, Croatian: serežani, Serbian: сережани) were an Habsburg military police unit in Lika, Croatian Military Frontier.

As an irregular unit, they wore folk costumes rather than military uniforms.

They organized the border patrols towards Bosnia, particularly on difficult terrain, and stopped incursions of bandits.

They required extensive knowledge of the territory, good marksmanship and to be constantly under arms.

There were also cavalry serežan units that served as escort to the high officers of Frontier regiments, carried urgent orders and carried out special patrol duties.
