Abstract
Cultural memory is the appearance of symbols, signs, and emblems that define the memory and identity of a nation for generations. In Hungarian history we can find many events that have defined the symbols of the Hungarian consciousness for generations. Not only significant but rather fast-paced, dynamic changes can be observed on the symbols conveyed by soldiers during the 20th century. The influence of the ideological system of the political system of the given period on the memory of the nation extends to the symbolism of the cultural values conveyed on the occasion of state and national celebrations.
