One more signed photo from eBay

QUOTE

In 1930 [Nicolae] Marinescu joined the ARPA Technical school and was appointed chief Mechanic of the establishment in 1935. PPL (on Light Aircraft) since 1937. In 1942, he was posted to Transazur on Dalnic Airport and from 1944 he converted on Junkers Ju-52/3m as a pilot. Marinescu with other pilots of the Air Transport Group completed many sorties during the war, to evacuate personnel and equipment from behind enemy lines during “Don’s Bend” fighting.

In 1942, he was posted to Transazur

This is the first time I hear about this region, 'Transazur'. What territory does it actually cover?

Gen. Dénes

P.S. I have the same photo in my collection - without the signature.

The quote is not actually mine, but that of the seller of the photo. Click on the image and you will get to the auction page. You may be able to address the question directly to him/her.

Yes, I know that. Still is 'Transazur' a valid historical term?

A signed card from eBay

QUOTE

Romeo Aeacsu [Neacsu] - Rumanian Fighter Ace of WW2 has personally signed this card below sized 55mm x 95mm.

He flew combat missions with Polish Units in Rumania against the Germans, but later joined the Lutwaffe to fight the Russians flying ME 109G, where he shot down about 18 aircraft in a total of 2,500 flight hours.

"... combat missions with Polish Units in Rumania against the Germans ..."

P.11 & P.24, against the Soviets, in 1941. Gen. Dénes This post has been edited by Dénes on May 04, 2006 02:28 am

What about the 18 aircraft he is supposed to have downed? How many victories did he have in the end?

Nearby at Thigina,was an oficecer of the prder patrol,that use to organize wild parties. Romanescu was invited and when he came back in the morning,he got a call from his wife. "Leu ,where have you been all night?" she asked... "Darling I cannot hear a word you say.The connection is horible". The guy in charged with the comunication;"The connection is perfect". Leu Romanescu:"taci in pizda matii ,ca stiu ca e perfecta..."(f**k you,shut up,I know the connection is ok).

General Medic Group: Hosts Posts: 2453 Member No.: 19 Joined: June 23, 2003	Today I visited Dobran. He told me a funny story: From left:Adj Ghita Scordila. On the right:Adj stag Emil Balan. The others ,no need to introduce. So... On the way from Pipera airfield,where the "defence of the teritory"was stationed,was a bar.The guys used to sstop there for a few min on the way to the airfield,and a few hours on the way back. Scordila,rented a room just over the bar (situated on "Calea Floreasca". He developed a special code;If he wanted beer in his room he would hit the flor in a way.If he wanted wine,another way. He and Balan were upset for not having action and not going to the front. One evening the started a fight (Scordila was a big guy like seen on the photo). They devastated the bar,and were punished by sent to the front. Just what they wanted.
