Journey to and from the Slovak National Uprising.

Vojenská história, 3, 28, 2024, pp. 87-95, Bratislava.

This study focuses on the military and wartime experiences of the prominent Slovak writer and translator, Víťazoslav Hečko. In 1942, Hečko began studying at the Faculty of Philosophy at Slovak University and simultaneously became a student at the Military College Boarding School (Vojenský vysokoškolský internát – VVI) in Bratislava. He participated in the Slovak National Uprising, was captured by the German Army, but managed to escape and hide for several days. On 16 November 1944, he returned to Bratislava and returned to the Military College Boarding School. While the Slovak Republic still existed, he achieved the rank of lieutenant in auxiliary healthcare. The study also highlights the fates of those members of military personnel who returned to the capital of the Slovak Republic after the military defeat of the Uprising and intended to continue the activities they had left behind before its outbreak.
