The beginnings of Czechoslovak military intelligence dates back to the First World War when the first intelligence groups emerged within the Czechoslovak legions. The basics of professional military intelligence were laid down immediately after October 28, 1918 when the Czechoslovakia was established. The first military intelligence chief was the divisional general, Čeněk Haužvic, who was appointed on November 12, 1918. This date is considered to be the official origin of military intelligence in Czechoslovakia.
