Stuka f Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Doing some research for a French forum friend, regarding Carlos Boyeldieu d'Auvigny who was in 3e Régiment étranger d'infanterie . What is he doing in a Polish uniform with a German bajo? Any help appreciated. cheers |<ris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odulf Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Possibly one of the French soldiers supervising the plesbecite and/or other border corrections in the period 1919-1924 in Western Poland. Note the (French) medal for Upper-Silezia (1920-1923). Probably the photographer's studio had some props to dress him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TacHel Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Complete shot in the dark here... Could he have possibly been attached to Sikorski's Army in 39-40? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_Army_in_France_(1939–40) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
