Military Organization & Equipment
The Structure of the Armed Forces
Every modern army depended upon a complex organization of combat arms, technical services, educational institutions and logistical support. Together these branches formed the military structure that enabled armies to function both in peace and during wartime.
The TŰZKERESZT Archive documents the evolution of Hungarian military organization from the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy through the Royal Hungarian Honvéd and the Second World War. Original photographs, manuals, documents and personal collections illustrate both the technical development and the people who served within these organizations.
