Summary/Abstract: The period from 1951. to 1958. represents the period in which the entire multi-level military school system of the JNA was formed. There was a transformation of military schools and schools for reserve officers into military academies. The Russian school system was abandoned. The school system based on one’s own experiences from the Second World War was formed. During the period there was modernization and reorganization of the Yugoslav armed forces, which was reflected in the development of higher education. Numerous foreign policy changes as well as internal reasons were also reflected in the construction of a new Yugoslav defense policy and thus military education. The adopted doctrine of national defense, which was the backbone of the teaching and scientific work of military schools had a specific impact on the development of higher military education. Military schools actively participated in the creation and construction of the new Yugoslav defense policy.
