I am researching the Soviet invasion of August 1944 and need to fill a gap in my knowledge. I am looking for information about III Romanian Corps, specifically:
1) was it in the line of 3rd Romanian Army, and 2) who was commander of III Romanian Corps as of Aug. 20th, 1944? Any help provided will be appreciated. Thanks. |
