  In the great narrative of World War II, the individual soldiers become obscured. Behind the summarizing and almost statistical figures, there are unfairly marginalized individuals who bore the collision of large spheres of interest. Therefore, it is important to examine military events from other angles than just the wide-angle optics of leading events. In my study, I seek to explore the problems of battalion 10/I commanded to the Eastern Front in 1942, which might have affected their level of ambition. For this, I use mood reports and relevant logs recorded by the battalion commander. Of these, I group the revealed ideas based on subject matter, and then attempt to draw conclusions based on the relationships between them. My main aim is to determine the mental state of the subordinates and the factors that influence them from the perspective of the sub-commander. This is interesting because in an autocratically organized, hierarchically structured violence organization, one-man leaders are responsible for everything they have done or failed to do. Paradoxically, it is in the interest of a commander to flatter them in the eyes of senior executives, so that this can issue a positive “certificate” of themselves, too. The study contributes to the expansion of knowledge regarding the military history of the 2nd Army of Hungary, and it also helps the development of the knowledge of today’s military leaders, making it easier for them to understand the moral changes taking place in the subunits.

  In Hungary, it was during the era of Dualism that the historically developed names of settlements got systematized, as numerous names were in use that denoted not just one settlement. The framework of registration was defined by the 4th Law Article of 1898. In 1904, Zemplén county, while in 1905, Abaúj-Torna and Sáros counties received officially registered names, among which the rate of the changed names ranged from 55.7% (Abaúj-Torna) to 66.9% (Sáros) around the Eastern edge of Upper Hungary. In ourstudy, we aim to systematize the registered settlement names of these three counties on the basis of what methods prevail in the naming conventions, also showing on maps the real spatial distribution of those settlements. It can be verified based on the 1906 registers of Sátoraljaújhely in what rates the new settlement names had been adapted. Ultimately, it can be stated that the new settlementnames had not or very vaguely got adapted into practice.
