But unfortunately I did not understand it.

I think he was implying (jokingly or not) that he likes it and wants to have it or to buy it from you.

[CCJ]

Yes,

I was joking with you. However, I wouls buy the badge if ever you want to get rid of it.

Is there a reference book that I can obtain that shows the various regimental badges of the Romanian army pre WW2/

As I mentioned in the original post, I have only the images of the badges, not the badges themselves. So I am in no position to "want to get rid of them". I hope you understand now why I was puzzled by your remark.

The Romanian Regiment that had Czar Nicholas 2 of Russia as Honory Commander -en-Cheif was the 5th Roshiori Cavalry Regiment. Not the 7th Roshiori Cavalry Regiment. The 5th Roshiori Regiment existed from 1895-1945. What I find fascinating about this regiment is that they wore the Russian Czar Nichaloas 2 cyphers on their epaulets after 1917 Russian Revolution and the death of N2 and continued to wear the insignia on their uniforms during WW2. I find this interesting. What was the reason for this continued wear of the Nicholas insignia on the uniforms. The Russians in WW2 must have found this to be interesting as well. Second Questioned to this topic, I understand that the Military Museum is finally putting together a reference book on regimental badges to be published later this year. Can anyone shed some light on this ?

5th ROSHIORI REGIMENT, SECOND LEIUTENANT, 1937

HERE IS A PHOTO THAT HAS ME SCRATCHING MY HEAD. THIS DASHING YOUNG CAVALRY OFFICER OF THE 5TH ROSHIORI CAVALRY REGIMENT WEARS THE CYPHER OF CZAR NICHOLAS II OF RUSSIA ON HIS SHOULDER BOARDS AND ON THE CAVALRY INSIGNIA PATCH THAT IS ON THE FRONT OF HIS VISOR CAP. HOWEVER, HE HOLDS A WW1 IMPERIAL RUSSIAN CZARIST OFFICERS SWORD. WAS THIS STANDARD WEAR FOR THESE OFFICERS ? DID THEY WEAR IMPERIAL RUSSIAN SWORDS INSTED OF ROYAL ROMANIAN SWORDS....OR COULD THIS HAVE BEEN AN ISOLATED CASE IN WHICH WE HAD AN OFFICER OF ROMANIAN-RUSSIAN DECENT WHOS FATHER MAY HAVE SERVED IN THE IMPERIAL RUSSIAN ARMY AND HIS SON WEARS HIS FATHERS SWORD. THERE WERE SEVERAL EXILED WHITE RUSSIAN CZARIST OFFICERS WHO SERVED IN THE ROMANIAN MILITARY AFTER THE RUSSIAN REVOLUTION.

5TH ROSHIORI CAVALRY REGIMENT - WW2

FOR ANYONE IN DISBELEIF, THIS REGIMENT DID INDEED WEAR CZAR NICHOLAS 2 CYPHER DURING WW2 AND WORE IT INTO RUSSIA THEY DID.
HERE ARE 2 EXAMPLES OF OFFICERS SHOULDER BOARDS FROM THE 5TH ROSHIORI CAVARY REGIMENT OF CZAR NICHOLAS 2 OF RUSSIA.
1ST PAIR - LIEUTENANT COLONEL, MODEL 1942 WITH SUBDEUD PLASTIC BUTTON.
2ND PAIR - COLONEL, PRE-1942 WITH GILT BUTTON. HOWEVER, DURING THE UNIFORM BUTTON CHANGE THAT OCCURED WHEN GILT BUTTONS WERE REMOVED FROM THE UNIFORMS AND REPLACED WITH SUBDEUD BUTTONS OF KHAKI GREEN AND DARK BROWN IN COLOR, THE CAVALRY CONTINUED TO WEAR THEIR GILT BUTTONS THROUGH 1945. I USE THE DATE OF 1942 AS A REFERENCE OF UNIFORM CHANGE WHEN GILT BUTTONS WERE REMOVED FOR SUBDUED ONES, BUT ACTUALLY, THE PRACTICE I BELEIVE STARTED IN 1941 AND COMPLETED CHANGE IN 1942. ANY ONE KNOW FOR SURE ? :?: ' border='0' alt='user posted image' />
