The strange oddyseey of the LEGION OF ARCHANGEL MICHAEL (LAM)
in Romania......

The Legion of the Archangel Michael

On June 24, 1927, Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, together with a few
battle-tested comrades, founded the Legion of the Archangel
Michael. In all his writings, Codreanu, known to all Romanians as
"The Captain", referred to the Legion of the Archangel Michael as
the Legionary Movement. This Movement was known in foreign
circles and press as "The Iron Guard".

Of great significance on the occasion of the founding of the Legion
of the Archangel Michael are Codreanu's words:

"Those whose faith in God and the Legion have no boundary
should enter our ranks. Those who waver and doubt should stay
out."

In a materialistic world Codreanu based his Movement on the
following principles:

I .... FAITH IN GOD

Corneliu Codreanu was of the firm conviction that politics could
not be separated from religion. Only men who have respect for the
Divine Order can become true patriots.

2.... NATIONAL IDENTITY

Corneliu Codreanu believed that nations are divine creations and
not mere products of history and geography. He also believed that
every nation has a mission to fulfill in the world. Only nations that
betray their God-given mission disappear from the face of the earth.

3 .... MAN --- A DIVINE CREATION

Man is a bearer of superior values which transcend his particular
existence. As such, being a divine creation, his spiritual values
precede all material needs. For the realization of these values, the
individual must fight and sacrifice throughout his life.

Among his principles there exists a hierarchical order. The
individual is subordinate to his nation, and, in turn, the nation is
subordinate to God and His divine laws.

The Legion of the Archangel Michael represented a nationalistic
movement, whose aim was to change the individual and create a
new "state of mind" of the nation. The Movement was not a
political party. However, the Movement participated in the political
arena in Romania with a party known as "Everything For The
Fatherland" (TOTUL PENTRU TARA). In the elections of 1937
this party had a resounding success.

With the help of the political leaders and the Judeo-Masonic
conspiracy, King Carol II abolished the constitution and assumed
dictatorial power. The first act of suppression of the new dictator
was the dissolution of all political parties. This started the most
brutal persecution of the Legionary Movement. During this time,
Codreanu and all the leaders of the Movement were arrested and
incarcerated in concentration camps and prisons.

After having appeased Hitler and having obtained his assurance of
"no interference in internal affairs", Carol II ordered the
assassination of Codreanu. During the night of November 29-30,
1938, Codreanu and thirteen Legionnaires were strangled to death.
From 1938 to 1940 Romanian jails were filled with Legionnaires.
Most of the leaders of the Legionary Movement were killed during
this period of time---they were taken out of prisons and
concentration camps and machine-gunned to death.

1938 - 1940:

Legionary Movement was headed by different Legionnaires. All of
these leaders were killed.

September 3, 1940:

Horia Sima, as the new leader of the Movement, succeeded in over-
throwing Carol II. After this "over-throw" of the King, Horia Sima
was accepted and anointed as the leader of the Movement. In the
new government of Romania, Horia Sima took the position of Vice
President.

January 1941:

General Antonescu, with the help of Hitler, assumed military
dictatorship and unleashed a new persecution against the Legionary
Movement. Horia Sima and over 400 Legionnaires took refuge in
Germany. As political refugees, Horia Sima and the other
Legionnaires were incarcerated in the concentration camps of
Buchenwald, Dachau and Oranienburg.

August 23, 1944;

King Michael, with the help of the leaders of the political parties,
arrested General Antonescu and committed the shameful act of
treason against its ally, Germany. The Romanian army entered the
war against Germany.

August 26, 1944:

Horia Sima formed the National Romanian Government and
became the President of the Romanian Government, with
headquarters in Vienna.

The Legionary Movement in Exile, under the leadership of Horia
Sima, continues the fight against communism.
