The Workers' Militia () was a paramilitary organization in the Hungarian People's Republic from 1957 to 1989. History Pre-1956 Similar worker-guard organizations existed before 1957 in various socialist countries, partly to the circumvent closing of the Second World War peace treaties (such as the German Democratic Republic's squads), in part to provide more actionable, non-regular "popular" groups than the armed forces (such as the of Czechoslovakia). Formation Following the quelled Hungarian Revolution of 1956, the Revolutionary Workers'-Peasants' Government of Hungary, Revolutionary Workers'-Peasants' Government ordered on February 18, 1957 the formation of the ''Workers' Militia''. It replaced the revolutionary regime's special police force ( or also known as , named after their Soviet-style quilted jackets).
