The Slovak Army originated in March 1939 from the organisational bases of the Czechoslovak Army units dislocated in the Slovak territory. The army had to go through a process of “Slovakization” in order to fulfil the characteristics of a new army, independent of its predecessor. They were searching for their own military tradition, military regulations, and ranks, commands, adapting their external and internal signs to the new order. The army had to deal with the legionary past of their members, which was also related to the Slovakization of the legacy of M. R. Štefánik, a general in French uniform and co-creator of the modern Czechoslovak state. The residua of their predecessor persisted for a long time, for never quite succeeding in making a striking discontinuity with the preceding military period, either in the staffing of the officer or sergeant corps, or in the material equipment or dislocation of their units. Some of the signs or manifestations of the “olden” times remained, only getting a new shade.
