In this contribution, the author deals with the topic of the significant personality of the Slovak military power of 1939 – 1944 – Rudolf Pilfousek. He came from Bohemia, however, he was an officer of the German nationality. Pilfousek was an officer, the service of whom had reflected the complicated and dramatic changes in the constitutional arrangement of the Central European nations of the first half of the 20th century, when different states were rising and falling. During his military career, he served gradually as the soldier of four armies, first as the member of the Austro-Hungarian Army and participated in the final battles of the World War 1. Later on, he served as the higher officer of the artillery of the inter-war CS Army.In 1939 – 1944 he was the member of the Slovak Military Force and Colonel of the General Staff. In conclusion of his military career, he shortly became the member of the German SS, with the rank of SS-Standartenfűhrer. Among the historical community, he is considered to be a negative personality of the Slovak modern military history, a pro-German and pro-Nazi oriented officer of the German nationality, in spite of the fact that originally, during the World War 1, he acted as the totally loyal citizen of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and later, after its collapse, as the CSR citizen, he was perceived as fully identified with the Czechoslovak State and its state ideology.

In addition to the general grammar school subjects, the school provided the pupils also with the studies of military subjects and a practical military training at the level of reserve officer education. The Slovak state military grammar school only originated in 1942, being dissolved by the outbreak of the Slovak National Uprising in late August 1944.Subsequently, it was only renewed for the period of a few months in early 1945, existing until the end of the First Slovak Republic.

Martin, where the school was seated in the school year 1943/1944.The study mentions the demands for studying at the military grammar school, with the teaching subjects based on the grammar school curriculum composed for civil grammar schools with emphasis on natural sciences and technical subjects.

The author points out to the changes in the educational process, caused by the increasing German influence and promotion of the German military doctrine.

The study further points out to the major impact of the Slovak National Uprising on the Slovak military power, in particular the activity of the Military University, as well as the effort to renew the University’s activity by opening the VVŠ Course III. at the end of 1944, only intended for the learners of the “A” Department – General Staff of the Military University.

In his contribution, the author deals with the topic of the significant personality of the Slovak military power of 1939 – 1945, Filip Cramer. He came from Moravia, however, he was of the German nationality. F. Cramer’s military service reflected the complex and dramatic changes in the Central Europe of the first half of the 20th century. During his rich military career, he operated gradually as a soldier in three armies, originally as an officer of the Austro-Hungarian Army, as a part of which he participated in the World War 1. Later, he served as a higher commissary officer in the inter-war CS Army. In 1939-1945, he was a member of the Slovak armed forces and the commissary colonel. Here, he held the function of the highest army commissary, head of the Ministry of National Defence Commissary, managing the commissary provision of the whole army. After the World War 2, he was not taken to the CS Army due to his German nationality, was deprived of the CS citizenship and the rank of colonel. In spite of his German nationality, he did not surrender to the Nazi ideology and did not engage in favour of the Nazi or Ľudák ideology. In his spirit, he was more of an Austrian monarchist. In the historical circles, he is considered rather as an ambiguous personality of the modern Slovak military history, in spite of not being a supporter of the Nazi Germany. After the suppression of SNU, he helped the families of officers, the Slovak National Uprising participants; he was monitored and in the autumn of 1944, an arrest warrant was also issued for his son, who was a Slovak officer.

Štefan Žiška, Infantry Capt. Jozef Zajaček and Infantry Capt.

They completed their internship at the Military Commissary College in Munich and at the Academy for Higher Commissary Service in Berlin, becoming familiar with the activities of the various commissary units and offices of the German Army, as well as with the organisation of the German commissary. Subsequently, they were sent to the divisional commissary and to the commissary of the army headquarters in the field on the eastern front. The reason for completing part of the internship at military schools in Germany was to acquaint Slovak officers with the organisation and activities of the German commissary, its education and training. By completing another part of the internship at the commissary of higher headquarters in the field, they gained important experience regarding the activities of the German commissary in the field. After completing their internships, the Slovak officers were entrusted with high-level commissary positions and at the same time were teaching at the MC as professors.

The study provides information on the specialised military educational institution of the Slovak Armed Forces, the Military College Boarding School (MCBS), established in September 1942.The study points out the reasons for establishing MCBS and its special status in the military education system. MCBS was established as an institution providing future officers with higher education in the field of arms and mainly services. The college students who committed to serve in the Slovak Armed Forces as professional officers after graduation were accepted as the learners of MCBS. The learners of MCBS were students of the fields that were lacking in the Slovak Armed Forces, the students of medicine, pharmacy, veterinary medicine, pharmaceutics, technical fields, law and other. Majority of the MCBS learners studied at the Slovak University in Bratislava and Slovak colleges, and a part of them at the colleges in the Nazi Germany. Difficulty of the MCBS studies was increased by the fact that in addition to the college curriculum, they also had to undergo military training at the level of graduates of the reserve officers’ training, to be able to become fully-fledged officers. The first part of the study is focused on the establishment process in 1942, as well as the course of studies of the MCBS learners in the academic year of 1942/1943.
