Here is my only post-9-9-44 postcard featuring a Bulgarian Lt. Colonel. Other than that I have no additional information.

Here is a selection of Pre-9th September 1944 postcards of Bulgarians in uniform. Some of which are identifiable, some have additional information that will be presented but some are very much "what you see is what you get". If anyone can fill any blanks it would be very gratefully received.

All the photographs I will be presenting are from my own physical album. Most are "previously unseen".

This first trio is;
An unknown Colonel
Colonel Georgi Simeonov
Lieutenant General Hristo Nedjalkov

Another similar dated trio.

Here are a trio of photographs of helmeted troops.

The painted design on the helmets is certainly rarely associated with Bulgaria but it came from the shock troops of the trenches. Due to this design and the weather I would date these photographs to Summer 1918.

Another random trio.

The third picture has a very nice Order "For Military Merit".
