The Beginning of Systematic Education of Officers and Non-Commissioned Officers in Croatian Army
Damir Jug
Sažetak
In this article I demonstrate how did the very beginnings of systematic education of Croatian Army look like. The aim of education was achieving greater efficiency and battle readiness
during the first years of war – 1991 and 1992. Throughout the first war campaigns, there was a lot of improvisation. Reservists had, if any, only the basic training. Organized trainings began when JNA started to abandon barracks on liberated territory of Republic of Croatia. As early as November 1991 organised education for Croatian army officers started in Varaždin and Zagreb (Borongaj) barracks. After Croatian army captured barracks in Ilica 256b, Zagreb, where Training and Education Centre "Ivan Gošnjak" was placed, entire education was transferred in Zagreb. In this article, I write only about courses organised in classes according the service branches. During period described here, six classes of reserve officers attended courses. This is first and transitional period in Croatian army officers and non commissioned officers education.
Sources I used for this article are from archives of Officer School. I used material from two boxes – "školstvo pov." ("education confidential") and "školstvo interno" ("education internal")
– labelled by class marks 800 and 803 and having signature marks 02 and 04.
