The second part of the study provides additional information about the activity of the Military College Boarding School between 1943 and 1945, until its demise in March 1945. The study points out to the Boarding School activity in the academic year of 1943/1944, change in organisation valid from January 1944, consisting of its integration under the Military Academy in Bratislava and the change of its title to the Department of Military Undergraduates, with the original purpose and tasks remaining the same. The Boarding School learners started to be called military undergraduates thereafter. The outbreak of the Slovak National Uprising (SNU) on 29 August 1944 significantly affected the Boarding School operation in the second half of 1944. A part of the military undergraduates and the Boarding School commander got involved in the SNU and the rest left to go home. The study also deals with the final stage of the Boarding School existence, when the Ministry of National Defence in Bratislava renewed its operation in October 1944, however, with only a part of the military undergraduates continuing their studies. The Boarding School was definitely dissolved at the end of March 1945, as a result of the Red Army approaching Bratislava and its activity was not renewed after the liberation of Slovakia.
