Article focuses on a short history of the 2nd Romanian tank regiment, commanded by colonel S. Zatreanu which took part at the 2nd Soviet Ukrainian front's offensive in late March 1945. This became later known as Bratislava - Brno operation. Operation's aim was to break the defensive line of German tank corps Feldherrnhalle on the lower Hron. Consequently Soviet forces were to continue assault towards Bratislava and Malé Karpaty mountains. The main task of the operation was to act as a basic part of the 27th Soviet Guards tank brigade, which had lost all of its tanks in February battles at the Hron bridgehead.

On February 17, 1945 units of the German Wehrmacht launched its last successful tank offensive on the eastern front. This operation was named Südwind. Its goal was an elimination of the 2nd Soviet Ukrainian front bridgehead on the lower Hron. The progress of this operation is well documented in the military-historical literature. We know exactly the units, their activity, even the losses on both sides. There is lack of information concerning the human dimension of this operation. Article focuses on three crews of second lieutenant Deputatov, who held their positions in lost battle until last moment and after it, they were celebrated as heroes. Were they really exceptional heroes or randomly selected examples to serve as a mean of strengthening the morale and motivate the others for such deeds?
