Summary/Abstract: Based on scarce archival material, press material and literature, the author attempts to present the organisation and operation of the Crisis Headquarters Bjelovar during 1991 and at the beginning of 1992 in wartime circumstances, during the armed conflict the Republic of Croatia was forced to fight against the units of the Yugoslav National Army and rebel Serbs. By the decision of the Crisis Headquarters of the Republic of Croatia, a number of crisis headquarters were formed throughout Croatia as a sort of hybrid bodies, the task of which was to harmonise military and civil efforts, as well as the logistic support, with the efforts of Croatian people aimed at liberating Croatia from the Great-Serbian aggression.
