Russians in Sweden
Picture here is a group of Russian soldier in Haparanda, Sweden in 1916. Prisoner exchange between Germany and Russia went through neutral Sweden. This would have been their last stop before going on to Finland, a Grand Duchy in the Russian Empire at the time. Photograph by Mia Green.

Kraftfahrer in Bucharest
Another motor driver this time wearing the shorter leather tunic. This photo was taken by W. Oppelt of Bucharest. Falkenhayn's cavalry captured Bucharest in December 1916 so this picture was most likely taken in 1917 or 1918.
