Abstract

The article focuses on the question how the End of the WWII and especially on the presence of the US-Army in South-Western Bohemia 1945 have been dealt in the Czechoslovakia in the Communist era. It charakterizes the approach not only of the official Czech historiography but also of the independent Czech authors that have published in the Samizdat.

In addition it describes the actions of the Czech dissidents that have commemorated the US-victims of the Liberation 1945 in the Czechoslovakia in the 70s and 80s.
