Summary/Abstract: The archives preserved over the years and managed with responsibility by the Armed Forces Historical Service represent, in the author’s opinion, a true source of documentation for military and civilian researchers, who have enriched the national military historiography with works of real scientific value. During the Second World War, in the structure of the Service there was the information office, which sought to record important data about radical movements, about their weight and influence in the Romanian society, about the risks to which the archive deposits and the patrimony of the National Military Museum were exposed. This office made an almost complete description of the destruction of the archives located in two railway carriages, bombed at Turnu Severin on the night of 15/16 April 1944.
