Merry Christmas from Bucharest, Nuk3m and HolyGrail!


I was born in 1991, but this does not lower the respect for those Romanians that fought and gave their lives for the liberation of our nation. Celebrating Christmas, all Romanian people should raise their thoughts to the people that gave us the possibility to be what we are now.





Crăciun Fericit! La Mulți Ani! And to many other excellent visual mods for you, HolyGrail!

Nothing but respect for you my man. I first went in the US Army in 1991, I was stationed in Honfels Germany, and studied warsaw pact doctrine, man you guys had a wicked training regimen, always said, if we ever went toe to toe with you guys, it wouldn't be pretty.
Merry Christmas to all

Hi George Formby , thank you

you have been stationed not far from where I used to serve close to German border in
Marianske Lazne-Klimentov military base ( anti-aircraft rocket unit , tank unit ) build in 1950
which was closed for good in 2004 and the whole city was renamed .
Bang ! I will likely never see it again , as I moved in 1995 in to the U.S. , so even if I go
to see it sometimes in the near future , there is not much left to be seen anymore .
Memories gone .
I was actually very lucky because my unit was about to be send to Russian huge desert
Karakum & Kyzyl Kum for live rocket to air target exercises :roll: but four months before
we were about to leave for Russia , I was luckily transfered to another unit because
of my former marriage status ( 18 years old ) which saved me from going to Russia as my
new unit just returned from there two months ago and they were veeeeery unhappy with
the whole experience in the desert and live rockets shooting exercise :lol:
I was one lucky SOB !!
I feel sad and sorry to those many families of young mostly 18 - 20 years old soldiers who
didn't survived their military service back then and tragically died . R.I.P

Amen to that stupid communist created Warsaw Pact !!!


Here is how far apart we were serving on other sides of the border between
Germany and Czechoslovakia

@ comisar91 , thank you

Merry Christmas

Hello Holy! Merry Christmas! I too would like to share the story about the communist military. My dad served the Soviet military in 1986-1989. He was stationed in Berlin and other cities in northern Germany. He did see the Berlin wall collapse, which as he told me, he immediately removed his Communist medals. On the next day he returned back to Belarus, which then he got a honory discharge even he did not return all of belongings. Now in 2009 he is living happily in Germany owning a very successful business.

I remember that weekend at the end of 1989 as a Yugoslavian too. It was incredible to watch revolution live on TV as it happens. Everyone was very sympathetic for Romanians and angry at Caucesku. At the end when revolutionaries taken over TV station and proclaimed that Romania is free and when they played some traditional tune with Romanian pan flute was very emotional, everyone cried.


There were rumors that Yugoslavian army was at the ready state by the Yugoslavian-Romanian border, and that government will ask for volunteers for civil services if there would be refuges from Romania (as my dad told me, who was working in the army in that time)


No one did know that something much worse will happen in our country too in the next few years.
