-The Romanian Volunteer Corps in Russia (Romanian: Corpul
Voluntarilor rom ni din Rusia), or Volunteer Corps of
Transylvanians-Bukovinians (Corpul Voluntarilor ardeleni-
bucovineni, Corpul Voluntarilor transilv neni i
bucovineni), was a military formation of World War I,
created from ethnic Romanian prisoners of war held by
Russia. Officially established in February 1917, it
comprised abjurers of the Austro-Hungarian Army, mainly
contingents from Transylvania and Bukovina. These had
been obliged to fight against Romania, and, once in
Russian custody, volunteered for service against the
Central Powers. As campaigners for self-determination and
union with Romania, they passed political resolutions
which, in both tone and scope, announced those adopted on
Union Day 1918.
The Corps was effectively an active military reserve of
the Romanian Land Forces, and regularly dispatched new
units to the Romanian front after June 1917. It helped
defend the last stretches of Romania against the Central
Powers' unified offensive, and met success in the Battle
of M ti, but it still lacked a unitary command structure.
When the October Revolution in Russia and the Romanian
armistice took Romania out of the Entente camp, the Corps
was left without backing and purpose. However, it
inspired the creation of similar units in Entente
countries, most successfully the Romanian Volunteer
Legion of Italy .
Mobilized volunteers or prisoners symbolically tied to
the Corps were left behind in Russia after the Russian
Civil War was ignited. Various such individuals formed
the Romanian Legion of Siberia, which resisted the
Bolsheviks in cooperation with the Czechoslovak Legions
and the White movement. These units were ultimately
repatriated to Greater Romania in 1920.
