Picture Quiz

wrong on every count (except about me being cruel... probably) (I wasn't totally sure how fun this question might get )

but AFAIK the uniform, weapon, equipment, place and man are all from the same country and it was taken during ww2

 

Ah, but you have fallen for my clever trap, I have elimnated 3 army's At least that my story and I'm sticking to it.

 

only about twenty or so more to go then , unless you've fallen for my 'maybe' clever trap and he isn't actually from a 'National' army as such..... or maybe he is....

 

Could he be Greek?

 

Hi Vegar - he could be presumably if he filled in the right paperwork and waited several years, or married one, but I'm afraid he's not Greek

 

Haha, well, am i close?

 

sorry not really all that close, but I can't give away too much yet - also Greeks wear silly pointy shoes

I would say the rifle is a good clue perhaps....

 

Ok you weren't close at all

 

Not sure about the rifle, was he on the axis? The rifle looks german-like because of the little dot on the butt stock.

 

Certainly German-like rifle , but not German

 

Could he be Swedish?

 

Yes he is - well done - you should identify the rifle if you can though, just to give it closure

 

Well, i just call it "The Swedish Mauser", but as many of you may not know about it, it is also called Gevär m/96.

 

Actually, that is not the m/96, i am not sure which model that is.

 

close enough - M94 Swedish Mauser - your turn

 

Sorry for the late reply, I will scan the picture i have selected tomorrow, i will have a question then

 

No worries Vegar.

 

I forgot to do it yesterday, but here we are:

Who are these chaps(Not looking for names) and where is it?

 

Need a hint?
