  • Introduction
    Notes Introduction 1This study uses ‘Estonian Veterans’ League’ as the most practical translation of the Eesti Vabadussõjalaste Liit (‘Veterans’ League of the Estonian War of Independence’). The popular term for a Veterans’ League member was vaps (plural: vapsid), or vabs, derived from vabadussõjalane (‘War of Independence veteran’). This often appears mistakenly capitalized as VAPS. A term for the Veterans frequently found in historical literature is ‘Freedom Fighters’, the direct translation of the German Freiheitskämpfer. Another unsatisfactory translation which appears in older literature is ‘Liberators’. It should be noted that until 11 August 1933 the organization was formally called Eesti Vabadussõjalaste Keskliit (‘The Estonian War of Independence Veterans’ Central League’). 2 Ernst Nolte, The Three Faces of Fascism (London, 1965), p. 12. 3 Eduard Laaman, Vabadussõjalased diktatuuri teel (Tallinn, 1933); Erakonnad Eestis (Tartu, 1934), pp. 54–62; ‘Põhiseaduse kriisi arenemine 1928–1933’, in Põhiseadus ja Rahvuskogu (Tallinn, 1937), pp. 29–45; Konstantin Päts.

Rundāns BASc, Waterloo, 1975 BA, Victoria, 2008 Supervisory Committee Dr. Serhy Yekelchyk (Department of History) Supervisor Dr. Perry Biddiscombe, (Department of History) Departmental Member iii Abstract Supervisory Committee Dr Serhy Yekelchyk (Department of History) Supervisor Dr. Perry Biddiscombe (Department of History) Departmental Member Despite significant evidence to the contrary in the Latvian language, especially the memoirs of General Pēteris Radzinš, Latvians, historians included, and others, have persisted in mythologizing the military events of 8 October to 11 November 1919 in Riga as some sort of national miracle. Since this Latvian army victory, first celebrated as Lāčplēsis Day on 11 November1920, accounts of this battle have been unrepresented, poorly represented or misrepresented. For example, the 2007 historical film Rīgas Sargi (The Defenders of Riga) uses the 1888 poem Lāčplēsis by Andrējs Pumpurs as a template to portray the Latvians successfully defeating the German-Russian force on their own without Allied military aid. Pumpurs’ dream and revolutionary legacy has provided a well used script for Latvian nation building.

    REZENSIONEN Auf der Flucht, hrsg. v. Erna Appelt u. Waltraud Heindl. H. 2 der Zeitschrift „L’Homme. Europ¨aische Zeitschrift f¨ur Feministi- sche Geschichtswissenschaft“ 15 (2004). Wiesbaden: B¨ohlau Ver- lag, 189 S. In der aktuellen Ausgabe der Zeitschrift „L’Homme“ n¨ahern sich die beiden Wiener Herausgeberinnen Erna Appelt und Waltraud Heindl einem aktuellen, politisch brisanten und zugleich wissenschaftlich jungen Forschungsgebiet: Migrationen von Frauen. Die Auswahl der Beitr¨age demonstriert, wie Fluchterfahrungen die Lebensentwurfe¨ von Menschen in unterschiedlichen Orten und zu unterschiedlichen Zeiten verwerfen und Lebenswege neu gestalten konnen.¨ Die Zeitschrift „L’Homme“ und ihre Herausgeberinnen stehen fur¨ eine Forschungsperspektive, die v.a. den Genderblickwinkel in den Vordergrund ruckt.¨ Den vier Abhandlungen folgen denn auch in den Rubriken „Im Gespr¨ach“ und „Aktuelles und Kommentare“ Beitr¨age, die sich mit Einzelfragen des Themenschwerpunkts unter Hervorhe- bung von Migrantinnen auseinandersetzen. Die Perspektive auf das „andere“, m¨annliche Geschlecht wird in diesem Kontext g¨anzlich aus- gespart.1 Wie gewohnt wird anschließend „Im Forum“ ein aktuelles Forschungsvorhaben herausgestellt, hier „Der Einschluss und Aus- schluss von Frauen in bulgarischen Geschichtsbuchern¨ der 1990er- Jahre“ von Krassimira Daskalova. In „Aus den Archiven“ wird von Patrizia Gabrielli der umfangreiche autobiografische Schriftbestand von Frauen im Archivio Diastrico Nazionale in Pieve Santo Stefa- no vorgestellt. Einem Nachruf auf die (in Munster¨ und nachfolgend Bochum) engagierte Historikerin fur¨ Geschlechtergeschichte Susanne Rouette folgen Rezensionen aktueller Veroffentlichungen.¨ Mit der Fokussierung auf weibliche Fluchtlinge¨ stellen Appelt und Heindl eine Forschungslandschaft vor, in der erst in jungster¨ Zeit die spezielle Situation von Migrantinnen die einseitig von m¨annlichen Migranten dominierte Migrations- und Fluchtforschung bereichert.

  • Nürnbergi Kohtualuste Autograafid Eesti Sõjamuuseumi
    347 Nürnbergi kohtualuste autograafi d Eesti Sõjamuuseumi – Kindral Laidoneri Muuseumi kogudes Mart Lätte 2007. aasta kevadsuvel jõudis Eesti Sõjamuuseumi – Kindral Laidoneri Muuseumi kogudesse üks huvitav kollektsioon Kanadast. Korporatsiooni Fraternitas Estica auvilistlase Paavo Loosbergi vahendusel sai muuseum Evald (Tommy) Tomsoni kollektsiooni, mis on seotud Nürnbergis toi- munud sõjakohtute protsessidega Hitleri-Saksamaa sõjakurjategijate üle. Tommy Tomson (1924–2006) elas pärast Teist maailmasõda Kanadas. Ta oli sealsetes ringkondades tuntud kui sõja-, pilli- ja kirjamees ning fotograaf, kes osales võimaluse korral alati eestlaste üritustel.1 Tomsoni kõnealune kollektsioon pärineb ajast, mil ta teenis Nürnbergis USA okupatsioonivägedele alluvas 4221. eesti vahikompaniis, mis valvas sõjakurjategijaid, kelle üle seal tollal kohut mõisteti. Ajal, mil ta teenis vahikompaniis, kogus ta ka vangide autograafe. 2007. aastal jõudsid need kirjutised Eesti Sõjamuuseumi. Alljärgnev artikkel annab peale auto- graafi de tutvustamise lühiülevaate pärast Teist maailmasõda tegutsenud Eesti vahi kompaniist, kus Tommy Tomson teenis, ning Nürnbergi kohtu- protsessidest. 1 Lähemalt Tomsonist vt nt „Leinateade: Tommy Tomson,” Eesti Elu, 21. juuli 2006, http:// www.eesti.ca/index.php?op=article&articleid=13778 (19. jaanuar 2011) ja Eerik Purje, „Tommyt mälestades, ” Eesti Elu, 1. september 2006, http://www.eesti.ca/index.php?op=article&articleid= 14076, 19. jaanuar 2011. 348 Mart Lätte Eesti vahikompanii Pärast Teist maailmasõda leidsid paljud sakslaste poolel võidelnud eesti mehed end lääneliitlaste sõjavangilaagritest. Sealt vabastama hakati neid 1945. aasta suvel, viimased mehed vabastati 1948. aasta sügisel.2 USA oku- patsioonitsoonis said viimased eestlastest sõjavangid vabaks 1946. aasta novembris.3 Paljud neist leidsid teenistuse Saksamaal USA sõjaväe juures moodustatud vahi- ja töökompaniides. Kompaniide moodustamisel oli suur roll Balti riikidest pärit inimestel, kes tegid agaralt lobitööd, et leida oma rahvuskaaslastele kompaniide näol teenistusvõimalus.
