North of Salonica, | British, French, Montenegrins, Serb-| lans, Russians, and Italians, assist- ed by Greeks, are matched against Bulgarians and Germans, while on the Russian fronts, English units | are to be found fighting with the Russians against the Turks. The! Russians, in company with Rouman-| ians, are also opposed to Bulgarians, | Turks, Germans, and Austrians. ! One of the British units above | mentioned is a detachment of armor- ed cars. This small force is with the Grand Duke's army in Armenia. Par- ticulars of how this detachment reached its destination, like the jour- ney of the Russians to Marseilles, when the story comes to be told, will make interesting reading. The unit Was organized and is commanded by Commander Oliver Locker-Lampson, MF. and included officers and men from the distant dominions as well as from England. The expedition | journeyed from England to Russia by the White Sea and was forced to spend the winter in the Arctic. In the spring, however, the men were able to Jand all their guns, cars, and equipment, receiving a great ovation cn their arrival at their destination. { After a short stay in Petrograd, where several of the members of the party were decorated by the Czar, the unit crossed the Caucasian Moun- talons and went into action against the Turks. Correspondence from members of the party show that the unit underwent cpaseless training in theArctic, They also did valuable salvage work, and the credit of sav- | ing one ship with a cargo worth £250,000 was in no small measure due to their efforts. While on the Kola peninsula the unit also carried out important work in guarding German prisoners and | in transporting material for the Rus- sians overland by sleighs, Another party was occupied for a couple of months in assisting the R to complete a section of the new rail- way connecting Kola with Petrograd. Towards the end of their sojourn in the Arctic, firewood ran but and all had to subsist on black bread and | biscuits. At the end of May prepar- | ations were made for the departure ||}; of the unit from the Kola peninsula, and eventually the force reathed Archangel. During the embarkation operations at Alexandrovek a boat ||} containing one party broke up and {i had to be abandoned, its pants having to camp. Some of the party were exposed for 24 hours until rescued by a British trawler. of the Cossack armies of the Cap- | casus I greet them." Battlefield Memorials.
