NATO Special Envoy the former Danish Prime Minister, Anders Blixen, escorted by French troops.
Andreivian Paratroopers secure the Culture Ministry and the square (yet to be named) outside.
One of Richard C's surprises during the game, after all the fighting around the English Church it turned out the church was full of refugees.
The Turkish Quarter scene of heavy fighting initially between the Turks and the Armenians and later between the Turks and the Andreivian Government forces.
French troops moving in to secure ruins in the Turkish Quarter.
The apartment block which saw two days of heavy fighting. The defence put up by the Andreivian Turks (Russ Phillips) will go down in history as a small band of troops held off the Andreivian Government forces and the Armenian forces despite taking heavy casualties and losing their armoured support early on Day One.
Sounds like everyone ganged up on the Turks. Some great pictures there.

Yes Turks came in for some stick especially on Day Two. But they did fire first ;-). Sorry Russ couldn't resist but the evidence can be seen in the burning wreckage of a NATO armoured car.
