Hello,
I could not find an appropriate section on the forum... So here it is. Came home with me from Kassel militaria show 2017.

The Crimea medal with Sebastobol clasp and 2 documents:
- Promotion from Jr. Lt. to Lieutenant.
- Award document for British Crimea medal in 1856. 

He later in 1862 was promoted to Captain adjutant Major and awarded Légion d'honneur.
Born in 1823. Whole career in 6 Cuirassier regiment.  
More documents here: Lt. BRASSEUR

Yes, Francois!

Do you want me to take a selfie with it holding a pineapple or another exotic fruit?

I am looking forward to research it properly!
