Hi Leo,

I have valued The Royal Hungarian Army for over 25 yearsz. However, yesterday I noted a contradiction between it and more recent Hungarian internet sources.

On p.40 you write that on 23 January 1939 the seven original bicycle battalions were renumbered as follows:

1 - 14
2 - 16
3 - 10
4 - 15
5 - 9 and 13
6 - 12
7 -11

However, several of the more recent Hungarian internet sources give the following:

1 - 16
2 - 15
3 - 14
4 - 13
5 - 9
6 - 11
7 - 10
new - 12

Can you clarify matters?

Many thanks,

Sid,
