On April 16, 1905, as a lieutenant in the Kragujevac Chetnik armed band (Serbian Latin: četa) he participated in the Battle of Čelopek against forces of the Ottoman Army, alongside commanders Doksim Mihailović, Savatije Milošević, Lazar Kujundžić, Vojislav Tankosić, Aksentije Bacetović and Pavle Mladenović. He also participated in the First Balkan War, during which he commanded an artillery detachment of the Serbian Army.
