The Military School of the Estonian Republic (from 1921 named simply Military School) was founded in 1919. The Technical Military School of the Estonian Republic was founded in 1920 but was in 1923 merged with the Estonian Military School, which in October 1923 became a unit of the United Military Schools (from 1936 named simply Military Schools). The latter was reorganized into the Infantry School of the Red Army in 1940.
