Trebrys Posted 1 November , 2006 Share Posted 1 November , 2006 Would anyone know how to get photographs of the village of Machukovo or Macukovo near the River Vardar just off the Doiran Front? I'm researching into the career of a soldier of the 11th RWF killed there on March 27 1917 when ambushed by the German 59th Infantry Regiment. Any suggestions would be gratefully received. Thanks. Trebrys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kate Wills Posted 1 November , 2006 Share Posted 1 November , 2006 Try the Salonika Campaign Society. You could always ask to make a request via the newsletter The Noew Mosquito Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apwright Posted 2 November , 2006 Share Posted 2 November , 2006 Do you mean "then" pics or "now" pics? I could take some "now" pics next time I'm up that way in a couple of weeks perhaps. A quick trawl of Greek websites for "then" photos has been unsuccessful, but I might be able to find something in the local museums, if you give me time. I'm not aware of any museums in Evzoni (as it's now called) - it's only a little place! - but I don't know that area too well yet. I would suspect that any interesting stuff is across the border in the much larger town of Gevgelija/FYROM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebrys Posted 2 November , 2006 Author Share Posted 2 November , 2006 Hi there, Many thanks for the offer!! Anything would be gratefully received, though I'm sure that photos of "then" would be mor effective! This isn't to say that modern pics wouldn't do though!! I'll try the War Museum in London to see if there's anything there too! Many thanks once again, Trebrys. Do you mean "then" pics or "now" pics?

MartinWills Posted 5 November , 2006 Share Posted 5 November , 2006 Alan Wakefield in the Photographic department at the IWM should be fairly helpful here - after all Salonika is his thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
