Organization of Border Security Service in Yugoslav Armed Forces from the End of WWII till Resolution of Cominform 1948

Summary/Abstract: Unlike the case of its predecessor first months of socialist Yugoslavia haven’t been marked with disputes over the borders and their lines. One by one border lines were possessed by the troops of Corpse of national defense of Yugoslavia –military unit designed for special assignment, such as protection of the borders. During first days of their service its units encountered many obstacles and challenges, from destroyed border posts and lack of manuals till multitude of illegal transits, mostly towards the West. In time, regular border security service has been organized. New border posts have been constructed and old one renovated. New rules and regulations have been adopted, as well new formation of units. Regular training of dogs followed together with creation of border intelligence service. While conditions on borders with Western countries was tensed marked by occasional border clashes and illegal transits general situation on borders with Eastern countries can be described as relaxed. However, Resolution of Cominform in 1948 brought major changes in overall position of socialist Yugoslavia in international relations which inevitably had huge impact on situation on Yugoslav borders.
