"General Radko Dimitrieff is a Bulgarian by birth, and entered the Bulgarian Army as a Lieut. in 1879. He took an active part in the Revolution of 1885. In 1904 he became Chief of the General Staff, and it was to him that the sensational success of Bulgaria in the Turkish War of 1912 was chiefly due. During the present war he has held high commands in the Russian Army, and won distinction at Przemysl. When Bulgaria entered the war against Russia, General Dimitrieff returned all his Bulgarian decorations."- From Allied Army Leaders, A Wills Cigarette Card Issued by the Imperial Tobacco Company Limited.

He may have returned all of his Bulgarian decorations, but he still seems to be well festooned in the cigarette card that I based my image on.

On another, completely different front (get it?), I'd like to thank Mark Kaufman for the nice little shout-out about my stuff and site on his blog.  If you want to see some work that I'm really keen on, I suggest you head over there for a little look.
