The author deals with the enlistment of Slovenes in German army during the Second World War, using as an example the village of Sveti Tomaž in Slovenske Gorice. After March 1942, as elsewhere in Lower Styria, the German occupier carried out enlistment of the military conscripts from Sveti Tomaž born between 1908 and 1928 (partly also 1929). The dates of their enlistment coincide with those of the inhabitants from the Ptuj District. In the absence of records, the exact number of those enlisted from Sveti Tomaž remains unknown and only approximate figures have been established.
