Beschreibung: French Chasseurs Alpins dismantling a mountain gun. French Infantry, probably from 156th Division, resting (they appear to be wearing dark blue tunics and red trousers rather than horizon blue). Greek civilians passing a dump of 75mm shells, "no shortage of shells here". The British Army camp. Greek civilians building wooden huts. A British fatigue party of about forty men pulling a wagon through their camp. British ASC troops checking the harness of their wagons before moving off. A British battalion marching in column. A meal from British field kitchens. British troops resting, possibly 10th (Irish) Division (note the high proportion of marksman's badges worn). A semaphore flag "signalling the arrival of troops in the Bay". A view of the French Army camp.
British and French troops on the Salonika Front soon after the Allied landing in October 1915.
