Chris Boonzaier Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Hi, I no longer have access, so cannot say... but with just the name BIECHL, and the fact that he was a Feldwebel (possibly) and served in 11. Komp of Bavarian Res. Inf. Regt 2... Would it be possible to find something? Thanks chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weltkrieg 1914-1918 Bavaria, Germany, WWI Personnel Rosters, 1914-1918 about Lorenz Biechl Name: Lorenz Biechl Birth Date: 3 Jul 1895 Combat Arm: Infanterie Type of Unit: Ersatztruppenteile der Infanterie-Regimenter Unit: II Ersatz-Bataillon/2. bayer.

Dave Danner Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 The Biechl in 11./b.RIR 2 was Franz Xaver Biechl. He was born on 10. Nov. 1881. Entered service 24 Oct. 1903 in 16.IR and transferred to RIR 2 on 2 August 1914 01.10.04 - Gefreiter 01.08.05 - Unteroffizier (Kapitulant) 24.04.09 - Sergeant 24.10.12 - Vizefeldwebel 07.08.14 - Feldwebel 09.09.15 - Offizier-Stellvertreter Decorations were the Prinz-Regent Luitpold-Medaille, Military Merit Cross 2nd Class with Swords, Military Merit Cross 2nd Class with Crown and Swords, Bavarian Dienstauszeichnung 1. Klasse, and Iron Cross 2nd Class. He was wounded at least once, but there appears to be water damage to the Kriegsstamrolle, and that part of the page is hard to read.
