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.

Alan in Bradford.

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)

Thanks for the clarification Alexei

Thanks also to the eagle eyed Victor for spotting the VM badge.

Alan in Bradford

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.
