| I'd like to invite everyone to post their favorite WWII pics found on the internet.
In order to post the pictures, they need to be already present on a website. You will need to use the "Image" button and paste each picture's URL. Hopefully, we'll build a nice collection that's currently dispersed across various corners of the internet. And since we're using URL's to display each image, this won't take away any of this forum's storage space. title edited by admin |

mg 42, haven`t you heard of allocation of resources?  what about the other helmets? were they swedish? :?: |
| Posted by: Victor January 20, 2004 08:44 pm | ||
Generally front line troops did not use Adrian model 1916 helmets. These were generally issued to second line troops, like AA gunners for example. But sometimes these troops also came under direct fire, so soldiers wearing them also could have seen batle. |

courtesy of www.redarmyonline.org this is one of the most famous pictures of the war. there are many legends about it and if you know any, please share. i have heard that they had to shoot the picture once again because the russian soldier had about 5 stolen watches on his flag hand and.....don`t know if this is true here is another one:  |

| Nice pics, Indrid. In the very first Stalingrad picture you posted, the large corner building in the background reminds me of the buildings built by Ceausescu around Unirii/Casa Poporului.....funny...
Dragos - In the last pic you posted, what tank model is that? |
| Posted by: dragos January 21, 2004 07:31 pm | ||
Let's post only photos with Romanian Army here.
It is http://www.worldwar2.ro/arme/?category=armor&article=6&language=en, with markings specific to 1944-1945 period. |

Do you know the difference between a battalion commander and corps commander? |
| Posted by: Indrid January 21, 2004 08:15 pm | ||
NO!! that was the info i found on that site. i don`t even know who made it, i had it in my preference list and i thought i could share a photo. that is all. i am a student and have not served the army yet. so don`t be so :mad: |
| Posted by: dragos January 21, 2004 08:29 pm |
| But you would have at least suspected how could a general be the commander of a battalion. :roll: |
| Posted by: Indrid January 21, 2004 08:50 pm | ||
i'm not that "suspicious". if you dont like the pictures or think they are out of place, you can easily remove them. you are the GOD of this forum , right? |
| Posted by: dragos January 21, 2004 08:59 pm |
| The photo is ok, just don't copy all the stuff you find on foreign sites, their documentation can be dubious.
And don't call me like that, I don't like such labels. |

| As I understood, this thread if for everyone's "favorite WW 2 pics".
Should we post here all photos related to the Rumanian Armed Forces in W.W. 2? |

yes, master! :mrgreen: just kidding :cheers: |

| Indrid, nice pics, but as Dragos said, let's try to stick to pictures of the Romanian Army and its equipment... |
| Posted by: Indrid January 22, 2004 05:16 pm | ||

Actually the person with the watches is not the soldier that hold the flag... The person with the watches is that officer (or NCO???) that hold that soldier that hold the flag  . If you watch carefully the guy's left hand you'll see some white scratches... The watches were "erased" after. I saw a bigger picture of this photo... I suppose the the guy had around 4 or 5 watches... |

 There is a russian text on the back, claiming that these are Romanian soldiers fallen near Stalingrad. The ammunition box on the right seems to be from Portugal.  Examples of the Romanian Field Post Ofice cards, these are the semi-illustrated ones. Usually given only to officers.  Example of the Romanian Field Post Office Letter, mostly given only to officers.

Are you sure it is an ammunition box? I know for sure, from my grandfather, that they had available cans with sardines, "Robert" trademark, made in Portugal. He mentioned many times the Portuguese sardines they got on the Russian front. |
| Posted by: ioni February 13, 2004 09:24 am |
| You could be right! The "ammunition box" was my assumption.
But, the box could be very well what you said. It certainly has several words written on it, bit only "Portugal" is visible. |

| Nice Pictures and Postcards Mabadesc, - I would prefer you show these rather then the pro-american propaganda you were making earlier..regarding their 'righteous crusade' in the middle-east. It's an occupation no matter what they call it. Let's stick to out own crusade of 1941, ok? We had a much better reason to be at war with Russia, then your friends reason to be at war with Irak. ok? :guns: [quote]  Waffen SS in action[/quote] Source: http://sgm.metropoliglobal.com/ von Maybach.., those are not SS, but Paratroopers (FallschirmJager) (Vinatori cu Parasuta). You can tell by just looking at their Helmet. The waffen ss are these guys:  Source: http://www.orient-luxe.com/ As for a favorite picture, I have many on my HD, which I can not load unfortunately. I like color Pictures alot- I think this rare one is one of the best.  Maybe Denes can post that color picture with the IAR's in Formation.[/quote] |

Here it is. To me, it's the most beautiful ARR colour photo. |
| Posted by: Der Maresal February 14, 2004 07:10 pm |
| :wink:
That's the one. It must be the original, since I've seen my copies much darker, and of bad quality and smaller, centered only on the planes. I got color pictures of Romanians marching through Odessa, and Color pictures of Romanian Cavalry (Calrasci) in the Ukraine. As well as a color photograph of a Sturmovik shot down and romanians inspecting it. Interested?  |

Alright, but how do I upload them from my Hard-drive? You want me to send them to you,..so you can post them here? You wanna do that? :keep: |
| Posted by: Der Maresal February 16, 2004 07:46 pm |
| I'll send those pictures soon.
As for some favorite color images, this is one I like alot. Altought it's German, it is from the 1941 Campaign in the opening days of Invasion. - The exact same scenary must have been witnessed by Romanian troops when they crossed the border into the USSR.

The 1st, 7th and 9th Cavalry Brigades took part in the battle of Odessa. This tank may have been captured anytime between August and October 1941. |

| The last photo is more probably taken on the bank of Tisa River in October 1944. It was indeed an encirclement of the Romanian 2nd and 4th Infantry Divisions in the bridgehead at Szolnok. |
| Posted by: Carol I June 28, 2004 02:56 pm | ||
It could be as the source of the photo seems to be a Soviet one. In this case, it is hard to believe that they could take such a clear shot while fighting against the Romanians. Of course, there is also the possibility that the photo is captured. |
| Posted by: dragos June 28, 2004 03:07 pm |
| If the photo is taken in October 1944, then it is plausible to be taken by the Soviets. As it is published, it looks to me miscaptioned. |
