Wow,I thought this was going to be an easy one.Well if you eliminate the Normandy jump because this one is obviously not Normandy.Nickdfresh eliminated Operation Varsity.That leaves 3 more jumps I think to choose from.
might the afore mentioned two words be “Market Garden”? It’s the only Allied airborne operation with a two part name…
The airdrops for Operation Husky, the invasion of Sicily? (1943)
Have you ever been to the Netherlands? You won’t find a landscape that hilly anywhere in that country (the most southern tip excluded maybe). 
I’m with Nickdfresh here.
Sorry my friends both answers are incorrect.I don’t know how to give the next clue,hmmm.How about first word is Operation 
good luck…
Hi rudeerude,
let me try to say something… It may be Operation Shingle? The landing on the italian coast next to Anzio e Nettuno, south of Rome on January 22, 1944?
Sorry skorzeny57 its not Operation Shingle.The year is 1944 though.
Hi rudeerude,
I’m almost out of ammo, but i still have one more bullet… Operation Dragoon? The landing on southern France on August 15, 1944?
Yes,Yes you got it skorzeny57 down to the last shot lol.I put a few color photo’s of Operation Dragoon yesterday on the photo site.I was going to use that for the next clue.No need now.Some info on this via Wikipedia
On August 15, 1944, airborne units of the 7th Army’s provisional airborne division, commanded by US Major General Robert T. Frederick, opened Operation Dragoon, the invasion of Southern France, with a dawn assault. Called the “1st Airborne Task Force”, the force was composed of the British 2nd Independent Parachute Brigade, the 517th Parachute Regimental Combat Team, the 509th and 551st Parachute Infantry Battalions, the glider-borne 550th Airborne Infantry Battalion, and supporting units. Nearly 400 aircraft delivered 5,600 paratroopers and 150 guns to three drops zones surrounding Le Muy, between Frejus and Cannes, in phase 1
skorzeny57 we await your photo…
Hi rudeerude,
direct hit with the last bullet! I’ve been lucky, because I’ve never seen any pictures about Operation Dragoon and i haven’t any idea about the landscape… I have to thank you for your precious clues… My profile picture (Steve mc Queen on “The great escape”) is just temporary, until i’ll get a personal pictures of the request dimension (100x100 px). Like i probably told you, i’m not an expert with the computer… Anyway, i’ll do my best. I’m trying to find some pictures from old books, in order to submit a “Who, where and when is it?”. Thank for everything!!! I’ll see you at the next quiz…
Hi guys,
here i have a picture quiz for you… I think is a simple one, expecially for experts like you. You have to find “wich Army, where and when”. If someone know the name of the camel’s breed, already know the place…
PS - hi rudeerude, finally i did it!
It’s a bactrian (two hump) rather than a dromedary (one hump) camel. The two hump camels can handle snow. Which suggests somewhere around central Asia, especially roughly around the Gobi Desert region where the bactrians come from. All of which suggests Soviet troops with a Soviet bactrian camel unit.
The original caption of the picture said “… xxxxxxxx camel”. I don’t really know if it’s a dromedary or a camel, anyway the troops are not Soviet. Take a look at the rifle of the soldier on the right… You almost get it, Rising Sun…
Alas, I’m not a student of weapons etc.
My immediate impression of the photo was that they were American troops, but my complete absence of knowledge about deployment of American troops in the relevant region suggested that they were more likely to be Soviet troops, because that was their region.
As a random guess, I’ll say that they’re American troops in the Khazahkstan region around 1944.
I’m sorry, Rising Sun, they are not Americans… These are mountain Troops famous for their mules… If you don’t know weapons, you can see the soldier on the right, that’s holding a mule… These soldiers are pretty famous to be stubborn like their mules… Just kidding…
The rifle…could it be a Carcano?
This would make the troops Italian Alpini (probably of Tridentina, Julia or Cuneense divisions) in the southern Soviet steppe in autumn of 1942.
Yes, Yes, FTG more than a Bingo!!! You win a weekly stay, right in the place where they shot the picture!!! These are Italian alpine troops (Val Chiese Battalion of TRIDENTINA Division) during the retreat from the Don river positions. The retreat started on January 17, 1943 and nine days later, on January 26, 1943, these troop had to fight against the Russians, in order to break the surrounding, next to Nikolajewka. After this bloody fighting, they, in a pratical way, had to walk toward west, since they only have very few mechanized means of transport. They only had their mules. The soldier at left, GianBattista Bignotti, found this “Siberian camel” (from the original caption), that took him for all the long way. Bignotti survived the war. Not so lucky was an older cousin of my father. He died, or in the fighting or in the neverend retreat. His body was never recovered and his parents never had news from him, despite his mom’s post-war persistent search. RIP.
Thank you, I thought the photo to be taken during the advance in 1942 though - rather than the retreat in 1943.
Anyway, here’s the next puzzle, shouldn’t be too hard either.
Where? I’d like to know the country of course, the region would be better.
When? Month and year are okay, the day in question brings one bonus point.
Answering the ‘who’ is optional.
PS. Interesting story behind that last pic by the way.
I’m glad you like your prize… Looking at the picture you posted, my first impression is that the soldier at left is an English, while the one at right seems a Russian tanker (judgin’ by the helmet)… It may be the meeting between Anglo-Americans and Russians next Torgau on the Elbe river (Germany) on April 25, 1945?
Your first part of the answer is perfectly correct.
But since the meeting of US and Soviet troops at Torgau is so well-known I wanted to know about a meeting of other allied forces.
