Red Cross Cover from Salonika

A further Red Cross cover, this time from Salonika 12 November 1915, this equates to 25 November in the Julian calendar.  Interesting that he was using the Greek Civil Post Office,  At this time FPO T 52 was open in Salonika serving as a small Base Office for the 10th & 22nd Divisions, prior to the arrival of Base APO X.

It's probable that FPO T 52 was out of town and it was easier to use the Greek Civil System.  I have seen other examples posted the same.

A brilliant cachet shown on the reverse.

Enjoy
