List of British recipients of the Légion d'Honneur for the Crimean War
The Légion d'Honneur was awarded to 746 members of the British Armed Forces during the Crimean War (also known as the Russian War) which lasted from 1854 to 1856. Prior to the Crimean War there was no precedent of a mass exchange of awards between allied nations. However, in January 1856 Queen Victoria and the Emperor of France formally agreed to an interchange of decorations between their two Armies.[1] However, nominations for the French awards had already been gathered, with recommendations requested at the end of October 1855 and mid December 1855.[2] In exchange several awards of the Order of the Bath were made to French soldiers and sailors.[1]

Awards of the Légion d'Honneur to members of the British Armed Forces during the Crimean War were made in two lots, with awards first announced in the Le Moniteur of 16 and 19 July 1856 (with a consolidated list appearing in the London Gazette of 4 August 1856) and again on 22 April 1857 (which was republished in the London Gazette on 1 May 1857).[1][3][4] The Légion d'Honneur decorations awarded to members of the British Armed Forces were those of Napoleon III's Second Empire with the Maltese Asterisk suspended from an Imperial Crown.

Other British Recipients
- Mr Neville Thornton was born in England but educated in France. He was selected by the War Office in Paris to work in the Crimea as an interpreter for the Commissariat Department aged 16 years, in the rank of sub-lieutenant. At his own request he was transferred to the Algerian Tirailleurs where he accompanied Colonel De Brancion during the assault on the Malakoff. When the Colonel was killed Thornton picked up a flag and led the attack until he was shot through the groin. In recognition of his conspicuous act of bravery Thornton received the Légion d'Honneur and was appointed a Lieutenant of Chasseurs by the Emperor.[7][8][9]
