Igor Ostapenko Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 I have few copys from 1940 Can you help me with translation from Romanian ?
Carol I Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 It is quite a lot to translate, but in essence this is a collection of legal copies of documents regarding the participation of a Jewish sergeant, David Senfeld/Seinfeld from Roman, to the Independence War. Apparently, he had received the Silver Military Medal and the Defenders of the Independence Medal in 1878, the Russian Commemorative Medal in 1881 and the second class of the Faithful Service Medal in 1883. He was naturalised as a Romanian citizen in 1879.
