Description
The paper examines the activity of the League of Combatants of War (1931-1941), which was composed of First World War veterans, most of whom were former soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian army. The League was a non-political and non-partisan organization focused on preserving the memory of the Great War. Whilst its main activity was campaigning for the erection of monuments to the fallen First World War soldiers, it was also active in the social field through so-called self-help and the concern to secure social assistance for the war-disabled. It can be concluded, from the states indifference and its shaping of the collective memory of the First World War period, that former soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian army were considered second class veterans whose remembrance, for historic reasons, was not included in the official commemoration of the Great War in Yugoslavia.

      • V razpravi je predstavljena dejavnost Zveze bojevnikov (1931-1941), ki je združevala veterane prve svetovne vojne, v večini nekdanje avstro-ogrske vojake. Zveza bojevnikov je bila nepolitična in nadstrankarska organizacija, katere delovanje je bilo osredinjeno na gojenje spomina na Veliko vojno, kar se je odražalo predvsem v spodbujanju k postavljanju spomenikov padlim vojakom prve svetovne vojne. Svoje delovanje je usmerjala tudi na socialno področje, predvsem v obliki t. i. samopomoči in v skrbi za ureditev socialnega položaja vojnih invalidov. Tako z zornega kota državne skrbi in odnosa ter skozi gradnjo in vsebino državotvornega kolektivnega spomina na obdobje prve svetovne vojne moremo ugotoviti, da so bili veterani nekdanje avstro-ogrske vojske veterani drugega razreda, katerih spomin zaradi zgodovinskih okoliščin ni mogel postati del uradne komemoracije Velike vojne na jugoslovanskih tleh.
