Hungarian officer training has always been closely intertwined with the nation's strivings for freedom and national independence. The long history of this officer training and of the building constructed to house it is a true reflection of this struggle, which saw both uplifting and tragic moments.
Here in Hungary, in the shadow of a multitude of threats, we may with some justification consider that every important action we take - either directly or indirectly - influences the independence of the Hungarian nation and its freedom. Such is the fate of small nations living in the shadow of large empires. The "Ludovika" spirit of serving the cause of an independent Hungarian state and nation is still alive today. We believe that in spite of the unfortunate events of Hungarian history, into which we have so often stumbled in the last century, many of its elements remain valid and still need to be upheld today. This Ludovika spirit is the ideal of self-sacrifice for the benefit of others and of the community, which protects our values beyond one's individual interests. Its legacy is still relevant in the 21st century even if it feels different from the notions which prevail in the present day.
