He is best known for his help to Polish and French military refugees in Hungary during World War II. BiographyBorn in 1883 in the Kingdom of Hungary, he received military education early in his life and took part in World War I. In the mid-1920s he became a director at one of the departments of the Ministry of Defence. He also held a number of other military posts in the interbellum. Following the outbreak of the Invasion of Poland in 1939, the Hungarian government created the XXI Directorate of the Ministry of Defence, whose purpose was to help the Polish military refugees. {{citation needed|date=November 2009}} Baló, then in the rank of Colonel, became the head of the directorate. His sympathetic stance allowed a large part of the 50,000 men strong group of Polish soldiers who reached Hungary in 1939 to escape from poorly guarded internment camps and join the Polish Army in the West.[1][2] Briefly arrested by the Germans after their takeover of Hungary in 1944, he returned to Budapest.
