Kyselák, JanJanošek, Miroslav2023-06-222023-06-2220231336-00192730-0544http://drepo.uniza.sk/handle/hdluniza/870The article briefly deals with the genesis of the local reporting service as part of civil anti-aircraft protection established in former Czechoslovakia in the mid-1930s. The purpose of this service was, among other aspects, a reaction to the threat of the outbreak of the Second World War and the associated possible use of the then-German air forces in this war, which again began to take shape in the middle of this decade. The preparation of the article is based on a content analysis of contemporary materials (especially magazines, legal standards, professional publications, etc.) devoted to the given issue. The authors conclude that the concept of a local reporting service was viable for its time, corresponded to the possibilities of the state and, at the same time, the maturity of the technical means that could support the activity of this significant service.enhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Air ForcesAlarm ServiceCivil Air DefenceLocal Reporting ServiceWarning singsArticlehttps://doi.org/10.26552/krm.C.2023.1.64-70
