-Anonymous, Titre Troiseme Ecole Artillerie, no date.

Have you got some more info about this work ?

The only thing I could find was this, part of a decree:

Brechtel19831 Dec 2020 9:19 a.m. PST

I have the complete document which had been xeroxed and sent to me.

That is the complete title of the document and the page that showed up is a part of it.

Oliver Schmidt31 Dec 2020 9:41 a.m. PST

Good, thanks, so it is this decree :-)

Happy new year !

Great index;
not sure why the "-Anonymous, Titre Troiseme Ecole Artillerie, no date." isn't identified for what it is- a 'government' decree by the Comittee of Public Safety, and a date must surely identifiable from the 1793-94 period.

To know why things happened later, it's good to know what happened then.
