Did you guys know about these monuments in Bucharest dedicated to the American soldiers who died in WW2?

'Jertfa lor eroica o vom pastra vesnic in amintire iar gandurile noastre pioase si pline de admiratie...'

Those guys came here to bomb Romania, isn't that underlined part a bit too much? Our thoughts full of admiration? huh.gif

It was built by Americans. It isn't us who 'will remember their sacrifice...', although we're not to quick to forget it either. tongue.gif

I found these articles about the two monuments if anyone's interested:

The stone with shape as an open book can be also seen in the ww1 military cemetry of Sinaia, near the building of Casino, if it is not the same stone, moved from Sinaia to Bucharest.

No, their is plural so it is correct.

As for bombing Romania in the other post. The US did not try to bomb civilian targets in the country just the refineries and oil production companies. FDR didn't want to go to war against Romania because he knew that Romania was stuck with Germany and going against its will most likely.

Here is the Heroes Monument in Codlea. Many of the soldiers written on the monument don't have a grave including my grand grand parents, bought died in ww1 on the front. Their names are Pripis Ioan and Silea Ioan

To be more specific, the cannon is a PAK 40. As far as i can see, it doesn`t have the original wheels.
