Hello,

can someone help me to identify some of the turkish and german officers present around Djevat Bey on this photo.

One is clearly Colonel Wehrle : second or third first line from the left ?

Regards

Claude

This photo was taken sometime after October 1915, when he was the commander of Southern Group. In the beginning I thought Wehrle was in this photo but apparently this was not the case. Also note the absence of Selahattin Adil.
