Fejezetek a területi katonai igazgatási rendszer történetéből: Az 1939. évi honvédelmi törvény hatálybalépésétől a második világháború befejezéséig

The system of disguise stemming from the Trianon Peace Treaty significantly impeded the qualitative and quantitative development of the defence forces. Finally, through the Bled Treaty these obstacles were eliminated. After the Treaty was signed the development of the Hungarian Defence Forces could be launched in earnest. The new system of the territorial military administration and the establishment of conscription commands began after the approval of Act II of 1939 on National Defence. As a result, the mission and structure of territorial military administration got streamlined and the levels of respon-sibilities of territorial military administration were set up. The newly formed registration of draft-age population was able to meet the increased needs of the forces in the field of personnel, information, and other aspects necessary for warfighting. Moreover, the territorial military administration was also tasked with the establishment and operation of the military administration in the annexed territories.
