Description
German evacuation of Greece in 1944-09 was succeeded by fighting between loyal Greeks and groups of partisans, notably ELAS, and Communist directed forces. British troops and the RAF clashed with these latter groups. British troops cross a bullet-swept street in their fight against anti-government forces.
