Some more of the photo

This large photograph was given to a russian officer (?) in Reval (?) 1913. Do someone know something about the ship and its later history? The photograph is signed something like "J Gusee Alger". And yes... the spots on the photo looks like blood.

This may not be wery interesting but these two simple bbadges was the only thinngs besides the regiment jeton that i bought. Do you know anything about the soldiers cross? The other is an ordinary shooting badge i think. In "Non communist north european countrys" i have asked a question about a regimentary jeton that may have belonged to the daughter of this russian officer.

The backsides.

These dont belong to the family and photos that i have asked about earlyer. I dont think they are wery rare but i havent found them in auktionlists or questions about them here. One of them is also in poor quality. But do you know anything of the purpose of these two medallions?

The backside is inscribed "1937/38 Kalju"

This jeton mayby (i am not shore) belongs tho a family that lived i russia and in Estonia. The daughter to a russian officer ended up in Sweden. But what is this? It is 36 mm high, looks like silver but has no markings besides the inscription on the backside. It could be military but can be something completley different. I am wery thankful for any answers!

The backside!

Here is an other photo from the collection. Private made and from later times. Some type of hospital. Could you read out something out of it? And what is written on the backside?

Thank You all! My conclusions after what you have written: It is a regimental jeton given to Ivan M. Borisov from the fellow officers in 8th Finland Rifle Regiment in Viborg where he served 1908 - 1913. I have the rest of the photos in an other place. As i remember this photo was with the most decorated person. There are many more of militarys. IThere are not many later photos from russia but maybe some? I am wery interested in Ivan Borisovs later history. I will search for more photos to send.

The other side.

Thankyou for the answers! Now i have photgraphed the medal. Is it some type of memory from the regiment? It is marked 56 and 84 and the "body" feels like gold.

Excuse me - Regiment is called 8 F. Here is the backside of the photo.

At first - english is not my language. Secondly - i dont read russian and dont collect military awards. I live at Gotland a pretty small island in Sweden. We have a small and simple countryside auctionhouse in my small village and there they sold the things from a man who had a russian mother recently. I bought the photoalbums who contained photos (many of militarys) and postcards (many from Sibiria) from russia. I also bought a small box with some small things and among them a ordinary soldiers cross and a regiment memory medal (?) stamped 56 and 84. This regiment is called F 8 and maybe it was situated in Viborg (betwen Helsinki and Petersburg) The man on the photo is in the same regiment. Does anyone know something about what type of regiment it was? If it had some name? Is it possible for someone to translate what is written on the photo? I will later take a photo of the medal and send it here. Thankyou for any answers.
