I tried to find more information about Marine Infantry on this website but it looks that this subject was not really discussed here. If I am wrong, please let me know.
I opened this new topic with hope that we can get together and collect more information about Marine Infantry. If you have stories, data, photos let's share them here. What kind of uniforms they had? I am personally interested in Marine Infantry from period of July 1944 to August 23, 1944. Where Marine Infantry units were dislocated from July 1944 to August 23, 1944? In Constanta or other places too? I am also looking for information about Nitu Ion from Comuna Stancea, Judetul Ilfov. He was my grandfather’s comrade.

Thank you, Victor!
This is a very interesting article. Nevertheless, in the section Infanteria Marina there is no information about marine infantry at all. I found only a short article on English version page. |

Thank you very much Montbrun for the information!
If everyone will contribute with something I am sure that we will be able to find interesting staff about Marine Infantry. I am wondering, are there anywhere in Romanian archives the lists with the solders from these Marine Infantry Battalions? |

It takes time to translate everything on the site from English to Romanian. If the Romanian version is not available a text will appear that will tell the respective person to check the English version of the article. There is not much written on the Marine infantry simply because there isn't much to tell about it. They were considered second class troops in the Romanian Army and generally had security missions with very few front line duty. |

An interesting article about Marine Infantry and the fights on the Danube Delta in 1941 is rote by Comandor Nicolae Petrescu and Cristian Craciunoiu in Modelism no. 5-6 /2010 , entitled " Lupta de la Chilia Veche - 26 iunie 1941 " .

Dear Mihai Popteanu,
Unfortunately I am not in Romania and I do not have access to this journal or magazine: Modelism no. 5-6 /2010. Do you have in possession this article: "Lupta de la Chilia Veche - 26 iunie 1941"? I will be very grateful if you can scan it and send me a copy. Thank you, Alex |

Guys, who can tell me something about “Regimentul Artilerie Marina Constanta “ in the period of May 1944. Where it was dislocated? It was just in Constanta?
