The Green Armies are peasant armies that warred against the White factions and the Bolsheviks simultaneously. They had very poor disorganization and they were of a localized nature. This made it easier for the Bolsheviks to war against them. Despite Bolshevik propaganda of the Greens being White collaborators, the Green Armies fought the Whites as much as the fought the Bolsheviks. The Green Armies often tortured Bolshevik officials and their families. I have found no pictures of any of such armies, but it might be because they warred in isolate area that were out of bounds to journalists.
