The name of (Count Matvei Platov )is engraved on the sword, one of the Russian leaders who fought Napoleon and expelled him from Moscow. He assumed leadership of the Cossack tribes from 1812 to 1814 and was decorated with many medals and emblems, including a golden sword in London, but this sword is his award. It was lit in recognition of his role in defeating Napoleon, but where and when???!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
