Further to my earlier post, is this French Ship Marocain, it appears to have been taken at Toulon, any opinions on what is written on the reverse welcomed.

Top left corner seems to be a name : le C F (Capitaine de Fregate) de Gameau … (commanding? ) le Marocain and the 2nd DOE ( ...escorteurs?)
The other signature is clearly the BNLO (British Naval Liaison Officer) attached to the Marocain … but difficult to read !

PhiloNauticus,
What are your thoughts on; "Le Capitaine de Fregate, de Garneau" or "de Gameau" as in his surname?
