Fighting two totalitarian regimes. The case of hero-general Livius Teiușanu, the first Romanian military attaché to the U.S.

Summary/Abstract: The article presents aspects from the biography of General Livius Teiușanu, the first Romanian military attaché in Washington (1917-1920). Born in 1888, he attended the Military School of Infantry Officers (1909), and the following year studied in Germany. He took part in the campaign against Bulgaria, and then in the battles of the First World War. After being seriously wounded in the Battle of Jiu (October 23-29, 1916), he was moved to the Infantry Military School in Iassy. After the war, he was sent on a mission as a military attaché in the Unites States, together with a team of diplomats who formed the first Romanian Legation in Washington. Being accused of antimonarchic attitude, he was arrested in 1930, after publishing some critical writings about King Charles II of Romania. Considered a “reactionary and anti-democratic element”, he was also arrested during the communist regime, on two occasions, in 1952 and 1959. Imprisoned at a hospital for nervous diseases, he was released in 1962. He died the following year.
