I looked for more information on the photo before posting and unfortunately I couldn’t find specifics on the identity of the man pictured.

If he was an anti-communist fighter in Romania, he would have been fighting in its 1989 revolution which overthrew the Warsaw Pact aligned Romanian Communist Party. The result of the overthrow being a republic styled government.

If I find anything specific I will update the post though.
