In his work, he mentions in broader historical context the intentional effort of the Slovak armed forces command to solve the urgent issue of insufficient number of general staff officers and intendants through complex education and training of the selected officers of the Slovak armed forces with corresponding military practice and military value at the newly established Military University. The reader is not only presented the causes of origin of the Military University as permanent military educational and training institution but also the most significant data regarding personal selection of learners and the course of their studies in the 1st training course. He also mentions the gradual increase of impact of the German armed forces on the educational process at the Military University as well as incorporation of the German military doctrine into the University’s teaching material. As has already been mentioned, the content of the 1st part of the original study focused on describing the historical events relating to the 1st training courses in 1940/1942.
