Turcos Examining War Booty at Neufmentiers (LOC)

  • aware health said:
    From Wikipedia: The tirailleurs from Algeria subsequently served in the Crimean War, the Second Italian War of Independence, the French intervention in Mexico and the Franco-Prussian War (1870), as well as in various French colonial campaigns in Tunisia, Indochina, Morocco, Madagascar and Algeria itself. During the Crimean War the Algerian tirailleurs acquired the nickname of "Turcos" (Turks) by which they were widely known over the next hundred years. The name reportedly arose from comparisons between the Algerian troops and the Turkish allies serving alongside the French and British forces at the siege of Sebastopol.[2] The Turks (from Turkey) were allies of the Germans in WWI.

[Breguet biplane, type 1910, flying over a town, possibly in Morocco] (LOC)

  • Kees Kort said:
    Flying above this city is an early Breguet Biplane Type 1910. Interesting feature of this machine are the small rudders between the wings on left and right. The caption is false, the name of the flyer Beregi is surely the name of Louis Breguet misspelled. The famous designer was early in hs career also a great flyer. The city that is overflown by Louis Breguet looks distinctly Arabic. Maybe a town in Marocco Cheers Kees [aka Varese2002]
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Thanks for this information. We'll add it to the source catalog.
  • Ztazen said:
    Indeed, it's a Moroccan city, and I'm pretty sure it's the city of Fez with it's distinctive surrounding landscape.

Geo. Tyler in Morocco (LOC)

  • Wystan said:
    George Tyler was a New York theatrical manager (Liebler & Co.) A story in The New York Times, August 6, 1911, tells of Tyler's return after four months in Europe (and Morocco): query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9803E7DF163CE6...
  • Wystan said:
    LOC -- Morocco is misspelled in your title.
