JapanX Posted June 23, 2012 Author Share Posted June 23, 2012 What we have here is another Eduard. Full set. Very special one One of the last military sets that were awarded in the reign of Nicolay II … Most likely this one was issued somewhere between 1916 and 1917. We know the name of the cavalier (very interesting and controversial historical figure ). French general Pierre-Thiébaut-Charles-Maurice Janin. Traitor for some, hero (?) for others … Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
