I found this site a few days ago, promptly lost it and now have only just found it again.

http://warpost.blogsome.com/photo-archive-mesopotamian-expeditionary-force/

This is a large site with quite a few links and I've only really looked for captioned photos for Mesopotamia. To get there click on:

Wilfred Owen Multimedia Digital Archive  -then in the upper right and corner click on Great War Archive and enter the search term Mesopotamia. One of the many results is the Photograph album of Capt. W. Harold Morgan: Mesopotamia

This information is available for research as long as the proper reference citations are used. My apologies if it has already been listed - this thread is getting long

Might it be a good idea for YoungTug to start a second thread, with links to this one and vice versa ?

Photograph # 113

This looks like the remains of the Turkish gunship MARMARISS which was run aground and captured in June 1915. It compares with a photograph from the Illustrated War News of October 1915 (as shown on http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?f=80&t=121164 ).

Oh well spotted RBC!

I think #120 is the Marmariss too, by the look of the funnel.

Agreed Greensleeves - differing stages of disintrigation by the looks of it.

So we have positive ID on two more of the pics!  Not bad eh?
