See Omer Paul Demeuldre

"He was posthumously awarded the Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur."

but on his uniform you can see Légion d'Honneur. How?? Or it isn't photo of Demeuldre?

Sincerely yours, Pavel

Most likely this picture is another example of a manipulated photograph. It was quite usual to "update" photos of dead family members with posthumoulsy awarded decorations.

Thanks for answer.
Quite possible. But it would be desirable to know opinion of authors of a site in this occasion.
