CARDS series. This post is dedicated to Camerone invitation cards — formal invitations issued by French Foreign Legion units for the celebration of Camerone Day, the Legion’s most important day, commemorating the 1863 Battle of Camerone in Mexico. Camerone Day is observed every year on April 30, and the approaching anniversary makes this the most fitting time to present this part of the series.
