Late dr. Elek Tóth lived in Hajdúböszörmény, serving the citizens as a GP. We hereby present a part of a diary he wrote. He had been preparing for a military career, but didn’t succeed, so he graduated from the Agricultural Academy of Debrecen. During the 1956 Revolution, he entered the National Guard and participated in its work all the way through. He was part of the negotiating delegation sent to the MÁV Járműjavító (Vehicle Repairs of the Hungarian State Railways). Together with four peers, he did not capitulate after the Soviet intervention, but hit the road towards Miskolc at 19:20 pm, on 4th November 1956. They wanted to join the resistant teams there. In his present reminiscence, he reports in detail about the days of the Revolution, and his role in it.
