    1. The attached is a portrait photograph of an individual known to have served with Axis occupation forces on a Greek island during WW2. It was part of a collection of locally taken portraits, all of German soldiers and NCOs. This individual, however, apart from wearing a distinctly non-military tie, does not seem to be wearing a German uniform at all. The roundel-and-cross decoration he is wearing reads, as far as I can determine "II ARMATA"; on the basis of that, and the cut of his uniform lapels, I judge him to have probably been a member of the Romanian armed forces. This is puzzling, as I am not aware of Romanian units serving in Greece. Could he have been detached on an individual basis? Perhaps as an interpreter with Italian forces? Any confirmation, or any further information, gratefully received.
