HUNGARIAN ARMY T-34-85, HUNGARIAN REVOLT, BUDAPEST, OCTOBER 1956
During the 1956 Hungarian revolution, a number of Hungarian Army units, including some tank
units, went over to the rebel side. This is a Soviet-manufactured, Plant No. 183 production T-34-85.
The rebels have painted over the usual Hungarian People’s Army red star in favor of the traditional
Hungarian coat of arms. The slogan on the turret around the coat of arms is: “Éljen a forradalom”
(Long Live the Revolution). The slogan on the hull is “Ez a haza magyar haza, minden orosz menjen
haza” (This home is a Hungarian home, all Russians go home).
