Here are a series of photos from Greece, probably when the 110th were stationed in Salonika, as the photos look like the ones taken in Salonika.
I haven't found any burials relating to the 110th, so the soldier must be from another company and I would think he was a significant person, given the ceremony afforded him.
There are two Commonwealth War Grave Cemeteries in the Salonika region, they are the Paramythia Civil Cemetery and the Kirechkoi-Hortakoi Military Cemetery.
Kirechkoi-Hortakoi Military Cemetery has 15 burials from WWII, but the dates of death are recorded as 1946 and 1947 (could these soldiers have been reburied after WII?) and any photos wouldn't have been in my dad's collection.
Paramythia Civil Cemetery contains one military burial, which is Major David John Wallace, son of Capt. the Rt Hon Euan (David) M.C,P.C and Lady Idina Wallace. Major Wallace was from the Kings Royal Rife Corps and lost his life while attached as an observer to the 10th Greek Division, the strongest national resistance force fighting against the Germans. It is marked by a memorial raised by the 10th Division and the inscription is in Greek. The translation reads: "Here rests amongst his guerilla comrades an Englishman, Major David Wallace, killed on 17th August, 1944, in the battle of Meninas. The soil of Greece is honoured to give shelter to this hero."
My bet is that these photos are of Major Wallace's funeral.
Could it be the 110th leading the procession and their vehicles carrying the coffin?
I can't see any other reason for my dad having these photos.
