See that last Romanian badge down to the right? It is a communist one, having the obvious eagle of any pilot badge... But look closer to the dates on the shield!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1941-1981 What it represents? |

The logic I would follow: What military unit was created in 1941 and was still a unit of the Romanian Army in 1981? Did any military discipline start its existence in the Romanian Army since 1941? Did we have paratroops before 1941? Also, the IAR-80 became operational in 1941. Good reason for a commemoration... Well, we are still in the fog... Regards, Florin |

But in Romanian historiography, 1941 is assimilated as the year of the "Crusade against bolshevism"! Getu' |

Talking of eBay, does anyone know the identity and perhaps the contact address of 'regele-mihai'? He is located somewhere in Rumania... |

Rumania? Are you sure? Not Japan? |

Initially I also thought that he is our Japanese colleague, Mihai. I contacted him, but he denied it.
Checking the location of 'regele-mihai', it's given: 'Romania', since March 25, 2003: http://cgi2.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=regele-mihai |

I think you can change your location when changing your ID... "regele-mihai" was ex-"lathanders" (located in Japan), a few months ago...
Anyway! |
