Sorry all ....

....after a review of pictures ... the one designated "Hut 10" should read "Room 10 "..... obviously it was a smaller hotel !

... also referred to a couple of times previously ... The Regents visit to Salonika ( where 110th were ) .... what a big bloke !!!! .... some troops at attention ... anyone recognised ?

I've got all of these photos and more Topper, but haven't recognised anybody.
My dad has just noted the 'Regent of Greece' on our copies.

LamBowes:

I also have a number of photo's, really of general interest, I suppose,  showing Salonika Harbour with sunken ships / Independence Day March in Salonika and "Football at Salonika" - with large crowds of troops as spectators .. could they be inter unit matches ??? ... as the teams look British. One individual player's photo says "Bryn Jones " ....?? Worth posting ?

This appears to be last photo I have of ( 110th ?) personnel and it is headed only " The Bar " ... looks like Europe as distinct to N Africa.

Best Wishes ...........Topper
