Horea, Cloșca și Crișan Division
The Horea, Cloșca și Crișan Division (full name: Romanian 2nd Volunteer Infantry Division 'Horea, Cloșca și Crișan' ) was established in April 1945 from Romanian volunteers, mostly prisoners of war, but also Communist activists such as Valter Roman. It was created by the Soviet Union at Kotovsk, and named after the Revolt of Horea, Cloșca and Crișan.
