[QUOTE="colinc, post: 60428, member: 1219"] I have a photo taken by my father [an SIS officer] of Adrian Seligman in civvies in Istanbul in March 1942 which seems to predate the LSF. does anyone have an idea of what the connection with SIS might have been, my father was only there as part of a tour of the ME as a 'visiting firemen'. As a complication my father had an 'uncle-in-law' called Seligman but I can't find a family connection. The conundrum is complicated by the fact that my father's tasks lay in France, and then the whole of Western Europe by D-Day so taking a couple of months 'out' is very strange. It's not as if the French Resistance was not then active! [/QUOTE]
