    According to Wikipedia, Radko Dimitriev was a "Bulgarian General, [and] Head of the General Staff of the Bulgarian Army from 1 January 1904 to 28 March 1907."

    Part of a numbered series from this military operation in the Bain Collection, most of which are now on Flickr. The others have captions which include the numbers. This one's "#15" (on the negative) has been left off the caption. See www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/tags/tchataldja/

    So this photo was probably taken during the First Balkan War, when the Bulgarians fought the Turks at Tchataldja (aka Chataldja and, in today's Turkish, Çatalca) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%87atalca Perhaps he was back in the news in 1914/15.

    Radko Dimitrieff joined the Russian Army as a volunteer in August 1914. This photo was published in The War Illustrated Album DeLuxe, Vol. 1; Amalgamated Press, London, 1915. See www.gwpda.org/photos/coppermine/displayimage.php?album=1&... It's used here too www.pictorialgems.com/1915-General-Radko-Dimitrieff-Soldi... which is from the Illustrated War News (also published in 1915).
