Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Camoufleurs
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) for visual identification of the person in question, at the head of the World War II section. Film-maker Barkas led the Middle East Command Camouflage Directorate, and pioneered the active use of camouflage in the Western Desert and so through the reconquest of Western Europe. His image thus stands for the WWII artist camoufleurs, many of them under his command.
