Summary/Abstract: This article deals with the issue of a necessity and the right of Bosnia and Herzegovina to establish its own military academy in Bosnia and Herzegovina; article’s ambition is to serve, if not as initiator at least as indicator to this very significant drawback of our state. Numerous are the reasons for introducing our own national military academy and we present those in this article with a reflection upon the most essential issues and problems. We also considered here a legal background and the real prospects for the establishment of B&H military academy. Negative aspects, like a negative propaganda or a possibility of indoctrination, of schooling our cadet officers in foreign military academies are also elaborated here. Significance and advantage of a positive national cohesion that would be generated through having our own academy in the present B&H society which is still burdened with national issues and divisions is emphasised in the present article as well. Besides the need for establishing B&H military academy there is also a prospect for its realisation both in a sense of existence of a legal background as well as in a sense of existence of necessary scientific resources and skills. However a political will is still lacking which is required to initiate and adopt required regulations with the aim of solving this issue.
