Vasile Marin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vasile Marin (1904-1936) was a prominent member of the Iron Guard, who along with Ion Mota, led a force of Legionnaires into Spain during the Spanish Civil War. Mota and Marin's forces died during the first day of fighting at Majadahonda on the Madrid front.
Their funerals in Bucharest (February 1937) were an immense and orderly procession[citation needed] attended by the Ministers of Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Francisco Franco's Spain, representatives of Portugal, the Japan of the early Shōwa period, and delegates of the Polish Patriotic Youth.
