A participant dressed in a historical uniform attends a ceremony to repatriate the discovered remains of Charles-Etienne Gudin, one of the most prominent French generals of the Napoleonic era who died during the 1812 Russian campaign, to France at the Museum of Patriotic War of 1812 in Moscow, Russia. On 2019, a team of Russian and French archaeologists unearthed a coffin in the Russian city of Smolensk some 250 miles from Moscow with remains believed to be General Gudin. A DNA analysis proved the hypothesis correct.
