On offer is a two-page report on the state of the armed forces of Austria in 1955. The document is titled "The Armed Forces In Readiness For Austria". Although undated, context suggests that it was written in the late 1960s. The author of the report is unknown. The report describes the effect of Austria s signing of the State Treaty on May 15, 1955 that, among other terms, permitted Austria to re-establish her armed forces and confirm her neutrality. This position of neutrality continues to this day. The paper goes on to outline the steps taken to re-establish the Armed Forces and some of the roles they play, internally and also under the auspices of the United Nations. For a historian interested in the steps that European nations had to take to return from the ashes of WWII, this is a fine synopsis of one country s efforts. The 2-sided document measures 11.75 inches by 8.25 inches. The condition of the typed pages is good and the pages are 100% complete.; Manuscripts; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 2 pages.
