Thomas W Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 I just bought a family album that has several photos of Austrian officers and NCOs observing Sturmbataillon Nr. 14 in a training exercise.

Thomas W Posted February 2, 2010 Author Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) The German assault-battalion commander with Austrian personnel. Unfortunately the album doesn't say where the training took place. Edited February 2, 2010 by Thomas W
Chris Boonzaier Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 Fantastic stuff! I dont know how I missed this!!! Were there any pics of the field guns of the Btl?
Thomas W Posted December 3, 2010 Author Posted December 3, 2010 Fantastic stuff! I dont know how I missed this!!! Were there any pics of the field guns of the Btl? Unfortunately, no. Photos of infantry guns seem to be almost nonexistent.
Chris Boonzaier Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 Unfortunately the album doesn't say where the training took place. The 14th SB was at Seicheprey in 1918, I think there were Austrians not to far away in the St Mihiel Bogen at the time. Best Chris
Les Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 The 14th SB was at Seicheprey in 1918, I think there were Austrians not to far away in the St Mihiel Bogen at the time. Best Chris The 35te kuk Division was at St. Mihiel at that time, and the next nearest Austrian units were in the front and rear areas of the Meuse-Argonne. The composition of the 35te kuk ID around August 1918 was: StBaon 35 (most likely the Austrians seen in the photos.....) 69 Ibrig.: IR 62 (3), 64 (3) 70 Ibrig.: IR 51 (3), 63 (3) 6. Schwd.HR.4 35. FABrig.: FAR. 35, 135, sFAR.35, GbAA.35 SB. 35

The Prussian Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 (edited) Hello! I recieved a postcard of the Sturmbataillon 14. Unfortunately no photo, but a stamp. The Feldpost-Nummer 82 fits to Briey (like the picture of the card) Edited October 15, 2013 by The Prussian
