DESCRIPTION

This work is an examination of the organization and equipment of Germany's most powerful ally on the Eastern front and the nation which, from 1944 onwards, provided the fourth largest allied army.

Although Romania had fought for the Allies in World War I with the fall of her allies the Czechs and the French mid-1940 she was forced to join the Axis.

A coalition government was formed under General Antonescu who proved to be one of Germany's most effective military allies. The Romanian army saw extensive action and suffered terrible losses in operation Odessa and at Stalingrad. By 1944 the Soviets were within the Romanian borders and the King sued for peace. Romania's defection significantly accelerated the end of the war. Her natural resources were now denied to Germany and her forces constituted the fourth largest Allied army.

Packed with illustrations, this book details the uniforms, equipment and unit organisation of the Romanian army during the entire conflict.
