Translation request and military history resource request
Hello All,
My 3x great grandfather was in the military during Napoleon's campaigns. He was eventually awarded the Legion of Honor. I have a 9 page military record for him that has lots of great info. I am specifically interested in the campaigns he was in. Maybe someone could translate this page for me (picture attached) but I am really interested in finding a book or website that tells the history of these campaigns. It needs to be in English. Any recommendations?
Thanks,
Vic

Thank you for the translation and links. The postcards are very interesting. I wonder if any of my relatives are pictured in them? In the 1800s, many Carres lived in Pel-et-Der and other near by villages.
