Graf Thank you Adrian -
I would appreciate it if any of our Belgian members could help with the following. How easy is it to obtain copies personnel files from the Musée royal de l'Armée et d'Histoire Militaire? I have looked at their web page however the copy costs if I have interpreted them correctly are high? Officer in question Capitaine - Edgard Emile Telesphore Rene Lefevre. Thank you

Chris Thank you. I have only just started collected verifiable French medals & therefore a novice to the workings of the French Army. I am learning a considerable amount thanks to responses like yours & the forum. Look forward to hearing from you. Adrian

Further to my research into Colonel MARCEL VICTOR LABORDE I am looking to confirm his clasps to the Colonial Medal. He was awarded three, two confirmed ALGERIE & MAROC confirmed on service record. The third is I believe either MAROC 1925 or MAROC 1925-1926 for service with the 9th Zouaves Rif War. Attached is a photograph of his Colonial Medal. Would any members have any information that would confirm the third clasp & which one would most likely be the oriental type? Probably impossible!!!! Thanks for looking. Adrian

Chris MARCEL VICTOR LABORDE 3rd Battalion 4th Zouaves - See attached images from his service record.

Have found the 4th Zouaves Regimental History online however it only covers their actions in France. I cannot locate any information on which Battalion? went to Morocco 27th February 1916 – 1st February 1918 & took part in actions at Beni-Mellal & Toumzit. Could any members point me in the right direction for information. Thanks for looking. Adrian

Hendrik Thank you much appreciated. Can I ask were did you find his Commander date as I have been attempting to unsuccessfully find this? also the mention of the Croix de Guerre would this still indicate a 1914-1915 date? Thank you for your help. Adrian

I have recently purchased an Inter Allied Victory Medal & Diploma for Colonel Laborde. The medal was originally sold as part of an estate sale in France in 2017 all awards sold individually. I know the location of his Médaille Coloniale Algeria & Diploma. However sadly non of the other awards. This is were I would like to enlist the help of the forum. Has any member seen any of the other awards that Colonel Laborde received? Also any information on his military career would be appreciated. Thank you for looking
