Hi Paul,
I've checked on the French website (Grand Memorial Culture. FR) and there are just a few listed with the surname of 'Campo', but none appear to be your man I'm afraid.
Cheers,
Steve

Hello Paul,
Congratulations on your acquisition if you did not recognise the Belgian Officer wearing the Adrian Helmet, this is King Albert 1 of Belgium :
If you knew this already, apologies.
Best wishes

Thx Andrzej,
I realy did not recognize the famous Belgian King. I did wonder why the print was there for one guy. Expensive for those days. There is a small photo of soldat Campo at the bottom of the frame after the war a a civilian.
And Bichon, where did you find the info of Campo's date of birth? Thx for that anyway.
Gentlemen many thanks
Cheers Paul
