| Did the Iron Guard party have any members that were hailed as "martyrs' for their cause like the Third reich's Horst Wessel? Who were they? |

| I know at least 2: Mota and Marin. They died near Madrid during the spanish civil war. They were burried in Romania with incredible honors. I read that they were called 'martyrs', at least at that time... (i suppose 'martyrs' against the bolsheviks... they couldn't be Christian martyrs since they didn't died for their faith.) BM |

Interesting list. I see two women, a German and a Hungarian ethnic. Did they all die 'in line of duty'? Gen. Dénes |

| And they were ''martyrs'' in their fight against who? King Charles II, Rmanian governement, Antonescu, Anti republican in Spanish civil war? I suppose that for the Iron Guard, Codreanu was a 'martyr' too. Bm |

| AFAIK Nicoleta Niculescu was murdred by the Police in July 1939 , Lucia Grecu was murdred by Siguranta Statului in February 1939 and Codreanu was strangled by Jandarmerie in November 1938 . |
