Captain Gheorghe Florescu

Hello camerazi! Who can tell me what did Captain J.Florescu get his Order of Michael the Brave for? Maybe somebody knows his biography or can give the link.



Thank you in advance.
"Captain Gheorghe Florescu, commander of the 6th Cavalry Division's mechanized squadron."

Royal Decree no. 445/12.02.1942 published in the book " Ordinul Militar de Razboi Mihai Viteazu" - author Col. Eugen Ichim, page 139 :

" ...................................................................................................
35. Capitanului Florescu I. Gheorghe din Regimentul 9 Rosiori " Regina Elena "
" Pentru bravura, calmul si priceperea cu care si-a condus escadronul in luptele de la Adamovitcha , pe timpul de la 29 septembrie -3 octombrie 1941, reusind sa cucereasca si sa mentina obiectivul ordonat , respingand rand pe rand , furioasele contraatacuri inamice. Cu acelasi avant a condus escadronul sau , in luptele de la Obitoschnaja din zilelel de 8-10 Octombrie 1941, contribuind la incercuirea inamicului , care a lasat numerosi prizonieri si armament pe teren. "
