Casualty Clearing Stations Salonika?

[Gardenerbill]

A quick search here revealed the following:

XII Corp area

25th CCS

28th CCS

31st CCS

One of my own topics

XVI Corps area

27th CCS

40th CCS

Were there any more Casualty Clearing Stations on the Salonika front ?

The LLT only seems to list the CCSs on the western front.

I came across some CCS in Salonika when searching for War Diaries in the National Archives.

They list 35 Casualty Clearing Station for 1 Dec 1916 to 31 July 1917 as well.

Thanks Bernie my guess is that 35th were operating in the XVI corps area making 3 CCS in each sector

As far as I can see from the Official History, Medical Services, those named above are complete list. The volumes are now online and can be accessed via this thread - Volume 4 is what you need for Salonika.

Sue,

Thanks again, I have downloaded volume 4, the maps are brilliant and I have already been able to determine that in 1917 there were only two CCSs in the XVI corps sector, 27th and 40th at Likovan and K71, 35th CCS is shown as being at Sarigol, 25th at Guvesne, 28th at Karasouli and 31st at Janes.

28 CCS at Karasouli and a Dressing Station somewhere on the Front

Who owns the photo of 28 CCS, are there any copyright restrictions?

please reply to this thread and wellingtonremembers@outlook.com

this is a not for profit HLF project commemorating the 184 names on the All Saints Wellington Lychgate.

We would like to consider using this to illustrate a biography of one of our soldiers who was treated here.

Thanks in anticipation.

My feeling is that the copyright will reside with the original author, unless he has noted that the pictures were taken by someone else.  In any case copyright exists until 75? years after the death of the author.  Copyright law is extremely complicated so do not rely on me.  I suggest that you contact whoever put the diary on line and see if they would help.

There are several threads in which copyright is explored. Yes, it can be complicated, and the law varies in different countries. My best recollection is that the creator of an image holds the copyright, unless he/she assigns it,  and that it is valid for 70 years from the death of the creator. https://www.copyrightservice.co.uk/copyright/p01_uk_copyright_law
