I present to you my modest collection of buttons of the Russian Empire. All these buttons are related to the Crimean War (October 1853 – February 1856)... It was a conflict between the Russian Empire and an alliance of the French Empire, the British Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and the Kingdom of Sardinia. The war was part of a long-running contest between the major European powers for influence over territories of the declining Ottoman Empire. Most of the conflict took place on the Crimean Peninsula, where I live now...

  The Crimean war gave us such gems as the Red Cross (indirectly....but the Crimean War represented a major impetus for the Red Cross) and as well as Tennyson's "Charge of the Light Brigade" and the painting of the same subject by Richard Caton Woodville.
  The Crimean War and the US Civil War stand together as transitions from the "old" modes of war to the "new" modes.   If the lessons of both had been more thoroughly learned there would have been a lot less bloodshed in the early days of the First World War where the sides tried to use Napoleonic tactics against industrial age weaponry.

1.
Half a league, half a league,
 Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
 Rode the six hundred.
"Forward, the Light Brigade!
"Charge for the guns!" he said:
Into the valley of Death
 Rode the six hundred.

2.
"Forward, the Light Brigade!"
Was there a man dismay'd?
Not tho' the soldier knew
 Someone had blunder'd:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die:
Into the valley of Death
 Rode the six hundred.
