    Promoted Unteroffizier 1.10.41

    The award entries are an UNUSUALLY complicated (needlessly so) way of saying he got the

    Hungarian WW1 Commemorative Medal for Combatants on 18.9.34 (#188,145 and all the blather under it is the serial number on the award document)

    Austrian WWi Commemorative Medal on 3.10.34 (again, same sort of unnecesasary scribbling of bestowal authorization)

    Silver Treudienst Cross for 25 Years civil service-- award date blotted out by the top smear of the black stamp

    and

    Sudeten Annexation Medal, awarded to him on 21.11.39

    This Unteroffizier must have been over forty when he was promoted.

    Hardy, thanks for that wonder how many WW1 soldiers went through both wars unscathed, I bought it as it is nice to see both books together and both have good service records.

    Surprised no KvK ?

    He apparently was posted to a Eisenbahn (Train) unit.

    Dante,

    He didn't manage to remain entirely unscathed.

    He was wounded on 10 January 1916 and was assigned to a convalescent company on 21 July of the same year.
