The Battle of Dukla Pass
By Bill Tarkulich - Saturday, October 24, 2020
By 1944, the Russian and First Czechoslovak Armies had been moving aggressively across Poland and Ukraine in a broad front, defeating the German troops and liberating its’ indigenous peoples. Soviet Russia had been supporting and leading partisan action in Slovakia for three years, providing troops, supplies and coordination. Russia planned a quick diversion to support the SNP uprising, entering from the Dukla Pass. This “diversion” turned into one of the bloodiest conflagrations in the history of Slovakia. Six days to Presov turned into 50 days to Svidnik alone and over 138,000 casualties. The Russian and Czechoslovak Armies had expected to meet up with the rebelling East Slovak Army Corps deep inside Slovakia. But things went wrong. Very wrong.
This presentation provides a broad overview of the events which precipitated the attack, the battle it and its subsequent impact on the villages and the people. The fighting occurred in a region predominantly populated by Carpatho-Rusyn villages. Rusyns take pride in knowing that at one point more than 60% of the First Czechoslovak Army (in exile in Russia) was Rusyn.
