Summary/Abstract: The Soviet occupation and the establishment of the communist regime in Romania generated the National Resistance Movement. The Black Coats was one of the numerous resistance organizations sprung on the territory of Romania. The organization included combatants from all social strata under the command of general Aurel Aldea. Sifting through some of the documents pertaining to the former archive of the Securitate, i.e.. the operative files, the degree of its members' involvement is revealed, as well as the political scenario dominated by the illegitimate ascension of a reduced minority, that of the Communist Party of Romania.
