[Cz-L] Romania 1939 - Bukovina, Bessarabia, Herta 1940 - A Video Compilation and Two Exhibitions!

Czernowitzers...

My friend Dragos Olaru from the Regional Archives of Czernowitz and our fellow member Florence Heymann drew my attention to a Czernowitz video from the year 1940. This video was an important part of two exhibitions, brought to us by the Romanian National Archives, i. e.

Days of Peace - Days of War - Romania 1939

Cession of Bessarabia, North of Bucovina and Herta Region, June 26 - 28, 1940
Between Powerlessness and Irresponsability - A Romanian Perspective

Each of these outstanding exhibitions contains priceless - downloadable!!! - documents and features each a video. In my eyes, both, the documents and the videos, are real jewels, especially for those, who read/speak Romanian. I've cut, rearranged and posted a 13:28 min. CZERNOWITZ VIDEO COMPILATION, as well as the complete videos, at

http://hauster.blogspot.com/2011/08/romania-1939-bukovina-bessarabia-herta.html

containing the following sequences:

Czernowitz in the year 1939!
Moldovian Shooting Associations Parade in Czernowitz!
Romania at the New York World's Fair 1939!

The fortifications on the River Dniester!
Cetatea Alba in Bessarabia!
Soviet Invasion in Czernowitz in 1940, June 26 - 28!

Are you waving your hand from the buggy driven by your parents through the Volksgarten? Are your ancestors acclaiming the Russian Army in Czernowitz, or mine? Is it your father, walking in front of the Temple, or, or, or...?

Watch, read, wonder, enjoy this show and don't hesitate to share your impressions with us!
