Nice work!

I see there is nothing for the greek forces that intervented in Crimea.

[Under french overall command, who forgot to evacuate them. Finally they marched on foot from Odessa to Romania!!!!! Immediately afterwards they were sent to form part of the army in Asia Minor!]

I found the following link:

http://www.militaryphotos.net/forums/showthread.php?t=131887

The link is quite useful for 2 reasons:
1.- it shows some brief history of the greek expeditionary force in Ukraine as well as brief reports on the allied situation there &
2.- most important: has plenty of colour plates of uniforms both reds and whites.

Almost all of it stolen. The map and translation on the Greek Expeditionary Force are stolen from me (not a huge deal in this case, since I only took publicly available material, but it was still not theirs to post freely). Much of the rest is stolen from Osprey.

I accept that we can't actually stop it, but I would prefer if this site did not condone stealing by linking directly to it.

There are probably a lot of links that contain material that have some sort of copyrights. I will not close down that post by argsilverson  or change it in any way.
The people who read this thread can decide themselves if they want to visit this site or not. If the Prof Witchheimer sees it different he will delete argsilversons post.

I just saw the rest of the thread:

1.- Never I want to steal anyone's work. That is the reason I always quote the website (at least) where I can find something of interest. Usually there is lot more information available about copyright etc. If something is someone's work, yes, it should be given credit to him. And this should be done anyhow, if this info is available.
2.- In fact I have seen the same content in a couple other websites.
if you feel that special credits have to go to anybody, please provide the original link. I would be happy to add the original one.
3.- Not all the material is from Osprey.
4.- Ospreys can be found "everywhere" in the net. Almost all MAAs and most of the rest (Vanguard, Elite etc) are available for free dowload. I don't know whether are covered by any copyright etc.
5.- I will not search anyone's copyright from the links I find. It is their job to do so.
But I Thank Mark Plant that has warned us about this fact.

Small amounts of copyright material are permissible, in most jurisdictions, for fair use.

I was peeved the original poster on that website didn't at least have the decency to cite the references. That's plain rude. No big deal for me, since I never did it for the money.

The Osprey stuff is serious though. I know that I can find whole books in various sites but it's a blight on the hobby. If people keep ripping them off, why would they produce specialist info?

Kakurin Nicholas E.; Vladimir Malikov Arsentievich. The war with the White Poles

That will be Kakurin, Nikolai E; and Melikov, Vladimir A.

The standard text from the Soviet side (along with Tukhachevsky and Budenny). Written before Stalinism ruined Soviet history writing.

I found couple websites that might be of interest:

landships (http://www.landships.info/landships/car_articles.html) has bunch of info and plans about the armored cars.
The old Jackson's Gamers site (https://www.angelfire.com/games3/jacksongamer/rcwfigs.htm) has a good (if old, circa 2007) breakdown of figures usable with Russian Civil War.
The same site (https://www.angelfire.com/games3/jacksongamer/RCWbooks.htm) has a good list of books concerning RCW, with brief writeup about each book.
