Stanislav was taken, and the Hungarians moved east while the Italians headed southeast. During this early stage of the war, the Hungarian army was predominantly reliant on slow-moving infantry backed by artillery. The second objective was Kamenets-Podoslkiy.
During this battle, the former commander of the Royal Hungarian Ludovica Academy, Colonel Ferenc Farkas, now commanding the 8th Frontier Guards Brigade, won the day and recognition as a Hungarian Military Great Leader. He was subsequently promoted to general and assigned to comand a new formation, the Carpathian Motorized Corps. This organization, CMC for short, was organized as follows.
Miklos Toldi Motorized Division
Janos Hunyadi Motorized Division
Nikola Zrinski Motorized Division
This modest combat group was little noticed, as the headlines of the day were reserved for the great advance of the Wehrmacht into Soviet Russia, as well as the significant success by the Rumanian army to the south.
