    Mr. Google offers: "By order of His Majesty, the Alfen Cross for combatants was presented to ...Goersmeyer... on June 29, 1864 by the undersigned in recognition of his good behavior." I can make vague guesses at the rest of the person's name, and I think part of the hand-written part is his regiment, but I don't want to mislead with incorrect guesses.

    You'll probably get better help if you join the Germany Genealogy Research group and post your question there.

    From the dates, it is likely that he took part in the Battle of Als https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Als (Wikipedia) during the Second Schleswig War between Denmark and Prussia
