PÔSOBENIE SLOVÁKOV VO VELITEĽSKOM ZBORE ČS. BRANNEJ MOCI V ROKOCH 1918 – 1939 Z POHĽADU VOJAKOV SLOVENSKEJ NÁRODNOSTI

In the published study, the author has focused on the issue, the knowledge of which is extremely important for the military history of Slovakia. The author’s choice of the above topic can certainly be welcomed. It is extremely necessary and, to some extent, relevant, especially as residual and stereotypical views of the problem persist to the present day. The author, especially through representative articles from the periodical press, interprets well the complexity of the problem of the small representation of Slovaks in the officer corps of the Czechoslovak Armed Forces in 1918 – 1939. He also rightly points out the linguistic, political, cultural and other moments that influenced the phenomenon. In terms of composition, the study consists of an introduction and eleven documents, which the author has supplemented with notes. The reader thus has the opportunity to get acquainted not only with contemporary Slovak views on the problem but also with their supporters.
