THE MAGYAR FRONT

The Magyar Front is the official English language journal of the International Hungarian Military History Preservation Society (from 1999-2007 it was the newsletter for the Vancouver Chapter of the World Federation of Hungarian Veterans). It is published quarterly, issued to IHMHPS members and supporters, and bears the same name as the old Frontline Fighters’
bi-weekly newspaper - our new journal is a tribute to the venerable veteran’s association of the past.
