The published study covers a not well-known topic: the joining of a partisan troop commanded by Jozef Trojan in 2. Czechoslovak airborne brigade in the USSR. The Author confronts several sources, memoirs and makes a puzzle of factual information on the troop. On behalf of this he focuses on the personnel of the troop, the establishment and as the real structure is not known he makes an assumption of a supposed structure to confront it with so far known facts. He writes on the military activities of the battalion in connection with 2nd Czechoslovak airborne brigade and some of its negative opinions about III. Battalion.

Key words: Military History. Slovakia. Slovak National Uprising. Jozef Trojan. 1944.
