Remembered Today:

Romania troops at the Victory Parade, Paris 1919

I have recently watched some footage from the parada that took place at Paris on July 14th 1919, and I know that Romanian soldiers were present alongside the other nations of the Entente. But besides 10-20 seconds of film, is there any other image related to our soldiers that participated at the parade?

 

The only source I found was this video:

 

The Romanians are featured at 14:46 min

2) Plus, does anyone know why there was a smaller number of Romanian soldiers present at the parade, compaired to the other Entente members' (Poland, Greece, Serbia, Portugal, Japan, all these had some more soldiers present)? Is it because of the war with Hungary that was going on at the moment, or there are other reasons too?

I don't know of any footage or images, but there is a marvellous, moving account of this parade in Alistair Horne's 'To Lose a Battle' (1969).
