Maréchal Corbin has awarded Chef de Bataillon Fabio Fogato the Carabine d'Honneur

On the recommendation of Général Schmidgall for his exemplary command of his soldiers as mention in this portion of the battle report below:

Battle of Tongrinne

Capitaine Fogato commanded the Right Wing, and directed these forces in the area of Villeres village.

It was the well executed combinations of advances and defensive operations on the Right Wing which sealed the victory for l'Armee du Nord, as Fabio accounted for the destruction of nearly 100 Prussian guns, and resisted every effort to break his lines with infantry and cavalry assaults.
The Prussians ultimately conceded a Minor Defeat.

Carabine d'honneur:
Awarded to officers who are mentioned in la Bulletin de la Grande Armee from battle reports and recommendations of commanding officers through muster. This honor can be awarded multiple times.

Sirs,
thanks to all!
I'm honoured by your confidence in me. Actually I think you overestimate my contribution to French
victory in Tongrinne MP game. I'd like to remember Gen. Schmidgall was the commander in chief and I just tried to follow his orders and battle plans at my best.
Thank you again.

Chef De Bataillon
Fabio Fogato
