Prilep, Sutlership of the German 11th Army

Marketenderei XI. Armee

Description

The attached photograph shows French colonial soldiers in Prilep, who were captured by the German army. In the right part of the photograph we see a sign with the German inscription "Zur Marketenderei XI. Armee." and a directional arrow. This is proof for the existence of a sutlership, a sutler being a merchant who accompanied an army in order to sell provisions to the soldiers.
