Algerians, serving in the French army during the First World War
American picture, made by photographers of the Underwood & Underwood Agency.
The caption reads that these soldiers are nicknamed Terrible Turcos.
The term Turcos was used not just for people from Turkey, but also for North-Africans.
On the reverse of this card there is another text:
"These soldiers are impetuous fighters, and the difficulty the French generals find in their employment
is to hold them back at times when to charge the enemy is foolhardy."
