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.

The Bratislava-Brno operation was the largest military operation on the territory of the current Slovakia. The 25th Guard Rifle Corps has also participated in the fights that took place in the context of this event. This work is dedicated exactly to this unit and its subordinate divisions. The focus is on the timeline of the operations lasting from crossing the river Vah until reaching the eastern outskirts of Bratislava. The advance of three Soviet divisions towards the capital of the Slovak state is described in the text, as well as the proceedings of the fights, the number of combat losses and dislocation during the offensive. The work is mostly based on the archive sources mainly coming from the Central Archive of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, which were only declassified a few years ago. This paper brings so a new perspective to the previously untreated theme.
