The role and status of Slovaks in the officer corps of the Czechoslovak Armed Forces in 1918-1939 was a sensitive political issue throughout its existence. Since their representation had never corresponded to the demographic indicators of the country‘s population and their proportion was only increasing very slowly, it was regularly the subject of controversy between the liberally oriented Czechoslovak Slovaks on the one hand and the nationally oriented representatives of the Hlinka Slovak People‘s Party and the Slovak National Party on the other hand. This was despite the fact that the Slovak question was perceived by everyone only as an aspect of Slovakia‘s alignment with the Czech territories in the cultural, political, economic and social areas, and the military question was only partially represented until the end of the 1930s. The press campaigns, despite their abruptness, point to the core of the problem.

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.
