Summary/Abstract: Sources and Documents / The beginning of the systematic training of combatant naval officers and navigators for the civil shipping was studied in publications for a long time, but its thorough description is still in its starting stage, because up to now it was done mainly on memoirs with limited use of archive documents. That is why every authentic document, connected with the problem and used in scientific studies, is no doubt, important for the research on the theme. Furthermore - obviously, personal academic documents issued from different units of the Bulgarian naval educational system before 1944 are used quite rarely in the scientific publications. That is why, every published and analyzed document of that type enriches our diplomatic history. In 1997 in the State archives -Varna (nowadays Territorial State archives -Varna) the personal documents of the well-known in the Bulgarian history naval officer from the merchant marine Georgi Bogomilov Djulgerov (1908.1971) were donated. These documents are the most complex gathering of documents of a .captain of high seas navigation. published so far. That is why this collection has the potential to shed light on the problem of training of professional naval cadres in Bulgaria, as well to present some of its aspects in a new way.
