Biography
Biography
In 1936, the alpinist section was formed in HPD and within it a rescuing crew, which Dragman was part of. Dragman gave lectures about hiking, using his own photos. These photos had enough artistic value to receive several awards. He also took an interest in painting. During his life, he practiced wrestling and boxing, and in 1935, he became the Croatian boxing champion in the light heavyweight category. During World War II, he collaborated with the partisans starting in 1941. In 1945, he was arrested and killed in the wagon on his way from Lepoglava prison to Jasenovac concentration camp. Despite that fact, he was falsely listed as a victim of Jasenovac by communist authorities. Additionally, on the list of the victims it is falsely claimed that he was already dead in 1944. Several mountain roads and a street in Zagreb are named after him. On the second anniversary of the death of Dragutin Brahm, who died while trying to climb Anića Kuk (712 m), Marijan Dragman and Drago Brezovečki became the first to successfully climb the rock, and the route was named after Brahm.
