1918-1920 Allies in Russia

[oldonefoot]

I have information that my great grandfather was part of the allied contingent that was sent to siberia about 1918. Is there anywhere I can find a list of soldiers involved. I believe he joined from Canada and returned 1919/20. Any help would pe a great help

Hi Bruce

What details do you have of your Great-Grandfather especially name?

[Tex]

I assume that this was part of the force assembled by the Western Powers to fight for the White Russians against the Bolsheviks. I recall reading of part of this force, perhaps a Polish contingent who, when their line of retreat was cut off by the Bolsheviks, marched all the way across Russia to the Pacific, but the details escape me I'm afraid.

Well my only idea woud be to contact the Imperial War Museum and see what information and suggestions they have
