In Turkish Serbia. Many landmarks still remain in southern Serbia to tell of the days when this territory was part of the Turkish empire. Every little village still has its Turkish mosque and hundreds of people still worship Mohammed. This picture shows the tall minaret of the mosque rising from the little village of Skopjle, still called Uskub on many maps. This town is one of the centers of American Red Cross distribution of medicines and hospital supplies for the south of Serbia
