Gardenerbill Posted 1 June , 2015 Share Posted 1 June , 2015 It might be worth posting this in the 'Uniforms and cap badges' sub forum of 'Paraphernalia of war' forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So only five armies in actual fact.It's one of three photos of a larger group, taken at Plateia Eleftherias (Liberty Square, junction of Nikis and Venizelou), e.g. http://media.iwm.org.uk/iwm/mediaLib/303/media-303305/large.jpg(Search the IWM site for Salonika Police to see the others!)

bushfighter Posted 3 June , 2015 Author Share Posted 3 June , 2015 Thanks Adrian. The second Frenchman was confusing me. As he has tropical uniform perhaps he came with Colonial troops. Harry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gardenerbill Posted 18 April , 2017 Share Posted 18 April , 2017 Solon, Welcome to the forum, I posted your question on the Western Front sub forum to see if any of the experts could provide information on what happened in France here: Western Front Question Only one reply so far, I suspect there was some kind of agreement whereby the Military Police of the army whose soldiers were causing a problem would be called in as soon as possible and the miscreants handed over.
