A photo, from my collection, showing a military parade, dated June 1936.
Uploaded with ImageShack.us Is it possible that the much decorated high ranking oficer taking the salute is actually Ion Antonescu? To my eyes there is a seems to be a similarity. I believe that in 1936 Antonescu was commanding the 3rd Infantry Division in Pitesti. Alan in Bradford. |

Cannot be Antonescu IMO - too chubby faced. Antonescu was indeed a short man, but he was very skinny.

That is a mountain troops unit the officer is saluting. In fact one can notice the "VM" [vanatori de munte] badge just above the waist on the right (his right) |

Another photo from my collection.
This one is inscribed on the reverse "25 October 1923, memories of Cetatea Alba". A Naval officer flanked by two Infantry (Vanatori?) officers. The officer on the right wears the Semnul Distinctiv Pentru Schiori, also known as the Insignia de bun schior.

Here is a lt. of vanatori wearing the Crown of Romania Order in the 1920s. Probably one the Guard regiments.
