The published material provides information about the almost five-month internship of the graduates of the 1st course of the „B“ Department of the commissary officers of the Military College (MC) in Bratislava in the summer of 1942, in particular Infantry Capt. Štefan Žiška, Infantry Capt. Jozef Zajaček and Infantry Capt. Jozef Dvornák in Germany, at military commissary schools, at commissary units and the German Army facilities and commissary bodies of the German Field Army on the Eastern Front in the summer of 1942. 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.
