From today's featured article  Beograd (right) after being captured in 1941 Beograd was the lead ship of a class of destroyers built for the Royal Yugoslav Navy during the late 1930s. Commissioned on 28 April 1939, she was damaged by a near miss during an air attack following the German-led Axis invasion of Yugoslavia in April 1941, and then captured by the Italians. After refitting, she saw extensive service with the Royal Italian Navy from August 1941 to September 1943, completing more than 100 convoy escort missions under the name Sebenico in the Mediterranean, mainly between Italy and the Aegean or North Africa. Following the Italian armistice in September 1943, she was captured by the German Navy and redesignated TA43. After serving with the 9th Torpedo Boat Flotilla on escort and minelaying duties in the northern Adriatic, she was sunk or scuttled at Trieste on 30 April or 1 May 1945, raised in June 1946, probably to remove her as a navigation hazard, and scuttled again either in July 1946 or in 1947.

The recipient is decided by the Billboard editorial committee. The Latin Music Lifetime Achievement Award was first given to Morton Gould, the president of the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP), during the fourth annual Billboard Latin Music Conference in 1993. Since 1994, the Lifetime Achievement Award has been presented during the Billboard Latin Music Awards. The accolade is usually awarded to a recording artist, but may be presented to industry figures who have helped raise the awareness of Spanish-language music globally, including Emilio Estefan (pictured), Ralph Mercado, and Jorge Pinos.
