    Forgot to say what fantastic material and photos!

    In the wedding photo, Vuichev's got a St. Stanislaus (civil?) at his neck as well. Flower sprays worn on Bulgarian uniform are sometimes seen on photos of weddings (to compliment the bride's corsage) and hunting trophy shots (generally not in full dress uniform though!).

    The last Ferd photo is extremely interesting as well. Besides the inscription, it shows the clearest representation of his Bulgar (in brilliants!) crowned Constantian St. George highest grade collar & pinback, his jewelled Cyril & Methodius collar and his odd small St. John pinback, reputedly a badge made in the late 1700s, I've ever seen.

    Thanks for the update. And yes, he is also wearing a Russian Order of St. Stanislas at the neck. I forgot to add it to the original list.
