   IntroductionIt is known that the first radiological units were widely used during war conflicts, whereas the first application of military radiology took place during the Greco-Turkish War in 1897. However, until recently automobile radiology units were assumed to be used for the first time during World War I.MethodHistorical archives and reports were researched, and extensive research in available literature was also conducted.ResultsThe automobile radiology units were purchased from France and were probably constructed under the guidance of Marie Curie (1867–1934). The figure of Dr. Dimitrios Vasilidis (?-1937), a pioneer in Radiology in Greece and the first president of the Hellenic Radiological Society, is highlighted.DiscussionThis short historical note describes the first use of a mobile radiology unit during the Balkan Wars (1912–1913), predating its previously presumed first use in World War I. It also briefly highlights the contributions of some notable figures in 20th Century Greek scientific development. Read less

   There is some irony in the fact that Britain, the country that mainly prosecuted the war against Ottoman Turkey, had spent the last 100 years attempting to prop up the 'sick man of Europe' against its foes. By the early years of the twentieth century the position had changed. The Young Turk Revolution in 1908 promised much but delivered little in the way of reform. The Balkan wars of 1912 and 1913 saw Turkey lose most of its European possessions. In Europe it was now reduced to a small amount of territory around Adrianople. Britain and France had been aware for some time of the alienation of the tribes in the Arabian Peninsula from Turkish rule. Was the Ottoman Empire finally on the brink of collapse? And if it did collapse would the British in particular face a series of hostile states on the flank of its communications with the East through the Suez Canal? Clearly, the British would have an interest in events in the Ottoman provinces, and France had a long declared interest in the fate of what are now the states of Lebanon and Syria. Vultures seemed to be gathering before there was a carcass to consume. The Young Turk government was not unaware of British and French interest in their fate. In an attempt to shore up their position they staged a coup in Constantinople in 1913, centralising affairs under the triumvirate of Enver Pasha (Minister of War), Jemal (Cemal in modern Turkish spelling) Pasha (Minister of the Navy) and Talat Pasha (Minister of the Interior). Enver, in particular, was pro-German. He had been Military Attaché in Berlin and was a great admirer of German military efficiency. On the other hand Jemal leaned towards the French and Talat towards the Russians. It soon became clear however, that the Entente powers were not prepared to accept Turkish conditions, which included the return of the Aegean islands lost to Greece in the Balkan wars and the abolition of the Capitulations - the series of tax concessions forced upon Ottoman Turkey by the powers. All the Entente was willing to offer was a guarantee of Ottoman Turkish sovereignty in the event of war. Read less

   Hentea gives a sometimes contentious view of the Balkans long history of media manipulation in times of conflict, starting from the beginning of the twentieth century. For many centuries the Balkan region was the battleground for three empires, Habsburg, Russian and Ottoman, and their respective faiths, Catholic, Orthodox and Islam. Until the end of the twentieth century, there was violent competition for power and influence, exacerbated by sometimes vicious rivalry between the large number of different ethnic groups. From the bloody struggles for independence from the Ottoman empire in the nineteenth century to the Kosovo war of 1999, propaganda and self-censorship played a crucial role. After the wars for independence against the Ottomans, there were conflicts over territory among the states that emerged out of the Ottoman empire. In 1912, Serbia, Bulgaria, Montenegro and Greece were victorious against Turkey, conquering multi-ethnic Macedonia. But in 1913, Bulgaria, extremely dissatisfied with its spoils from the war, attacked its former allies Serbia and Greece. Read less
