The work In Memoriam. In Memory of the Heroes Who Fell at the Nistru (1992) was developed within the Center for Culture and Military History and published under the auspices of the Government of the Republic of Moldova, the Bureau for Reintegration, and the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Moldova. Authors: Gheorghe Bălan, Vitalie Ciobanu, Gheorghe Cojocaru.
This work provides a retrospective of the events that led to the outbreak of the war on the Nistru, accompanied by photographs of the heroes who lost their lives in the battles to defend the independence and territorial integrity of the Republic of Moldova.
On March 2, 1992, the political conflict in the Nistru region escalated into a true fratricidal war. Under the fabricated pretext of "defending Russia's southern borders," political adventurers from the former Soviet metropolis encouraged Transnistrian separatism by arming secessionist paramilitary groups. At the same time, thousands of mercenary Cossacks and prisoners released early from jails, along with tanks and missiles, were sent against Independent Moldova, in a desperate attempt to revive the fallen empire.
Russia's undeclared war against the Republic of Moldova left behind hundreds of dead and wounded, shattered families, and villages in ruins. More than 50,000 peaceful residents from the conflict zone were forced to flee their homes, seeking refuge from the horrors of war.
For the sake of freedom and the future, Moldova's defenders faced death, enduring the hardships and humiliations of war.
During the Nistru war, 198 soldiers of the National Army and 89 personnel from the Ministry of Internal Affairs lost their lives, while 40 combatants went missing without a trace, and nearly 300 were left disabled.
Historic events from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries attested in notes from manuscripts and old books from the Principality of Moldova

After having investigated numerous notes from the manuscripts and old books from the Principality of Moldova dated with the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it appears that they are true historical sources contributing to the discovery of our past. These notes can be considered authentic pages of chronicles, documents with narrative character. The authors of the notes were often themselves the witnesses of that they wrote or copied from other sources, they made notes of what they heard “for remembrance”. The thematic of the notes is quite diversified, there is information about the events which marked directly or indirectly the authors, about bad times, reign periods, the difficulties of war or military confrontations, the presence of foreign armies on the Principality of Moldova’ territory, devastations, fires, bad years, epidemics, daily operations etc. These notes are largely double checked by documentary sources or chronicles; they offer true information, supported by historical documents, sometimes new details unknown to history.
