Belgium Knight to the Leopold I order, brevet to Jean Théodore Teichmann

[Stuka f]

I didn't realy know where to put thise, but opening a new threat seemed appropriated for thise rather important document.

At first I didn't realy know how important it could be, I had to be quick, I just saw it was a old Leopold I brevet to the order with the same name, with a dry stamp (rather uncomoun on later brevet's!)

It was just when I got home that the name Teichmann stroke me .

He got the medal when he was general inspector for public Works (bridges and road's! A very specific service for a long time in Belgium (and France!)).

He had a great political carreer, minister for internal affairs during a short transition periode at the Belgian independance, governor of Antwerp at one time, and so on.
