These
are the posthumous arms of
the armiger’s forebear, a
young commanding officer
in the 43rd Colonial
Infantry Regiment, knight
of the Legion of Honour,
who was awarded the War
Cross (TOE), and who at
the head of his men
prematurely but gloriously
lost his life in combat in
Cochinchina, during the
First Indochina War.
The line drawing
illustrated here is by the
armiger's hand, based on
an original model by
Lothar Müller-Westphal,
with the latter's express
permission for
publication. |
