In March 1939, the German Army occupied a part of the western Slovak territory up to the Váh River. The German battalions blocked the Slovak troops in the places of their dislocation, interning a part of soldiers in the barracks and starting to carry away the military material, equipment and armament from the occupied territory. They ignored the protests from the Slovak State civil and military authorities. The author maps the procedure of the occupational German battalions and focuses on the military situation in individual Slovak garrisons. The article presents the crude German pressure to clear the occupied territory, to which the Slovak part surrendered in April 1939.The evacuation of several Slovak garrisons is also described. In spite of the German disapproval, the Slovak symbolic crew guards remained in the occupied territory, however without any actual combat value. Finally, in May 1939, the Germans agreed to bilateral negotiations on the status and border of the occupied territory free of the Slovak military presence.

The study deals with the activities of the Prussian 35th Reserve-Division on the territory of north-eastern Slovakia during April-May 1915, when the battles in the Carpathian Mountains were at their peak. The division was a part of the German Beskidenkorps, led by General Georg von der Marwitz. The Corps was dispatched to the Carpathian Mountains to help the Austro-Hungarian 3rd Army hold back the Russian offensive. The 35th Reserve Division took part in the Easter Battle in the Carpathian Mountains, where they managed to halt the Russian advance. The Division Regiments were deployed in the area of the villages of Čabiny and Valentovce. The heaviest fights during April 1915 were fought by the Division Regiments for the Height 419 north of Čabiny. At the turn of April and May 1915 the Division Regiments were on guard duty in the area of Čabiny and the Olšava River Valley. On 5-8 May 1915, they participated in the expulsion of the Russians from the Slovak territory, during which they liberated the villages of Krásny Brod, Ňagov and Čabalovce. The final battles of the First World War in Slovakia were spent by the Division Regiments fighting in the Magura Mountains.
