The published study deals with the attitudes of members of the Czechoslovak People’s Army, especially members of the units, formations and facilities operating under the Military District East (MDE) towards the internal political developments in the CSSR in response to the deployment of the Soviet Army units throughout Czechoslovakia and the reorganization of selected Czechoslovak army units therewith connected from the autumn of 1968 to April 1969. The author refers to this stage as ‘beginnings of normalization’. He aims to ‘supplement the research of selected aspects’ in the given period under the conditions of the MDE, which, territorially, also covered (from 1 January 1969) the area of Slovakia. In processing the study, the author relies on the study results of materials stored in the military archives of the Slovak Republic and the Czech Republic.

Key words: Military history. Czechoslovakia. Army at the beginning of normalization. Autumn 1938 – April 1969.
