This study, written on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the establishment of the independent state of Czechs and Slovaks, focuses on personal data of Ladislav Holdoš. The native Slovak and a confident communist since his youth ranked a mere corporal in the Czechoslovak Army, however during his activity in the International Brigades in Spain he became the second commander of the Anti-aircraft Battery “Klement Gottwald” in the rank of captain. When the Second World War broke out he became a member of the MOI partisan group, operating within the French Resistance Movement. He was arrested and the rest of the wartime he spent in the concentration camp in Buchenwald. After 1945 Ladislav Holdoš was an important representative of the Slovak and Czechoslovak Communist Party and at the same time one of the first victims of the political trials in the 1950s. Later he was rehabilitated and worked as a researcher in the Slovak Academy of Sciences. In the late 1960s he was appointed an ambassador in Cuba. During the normalization he was expelled from the party.
