He was a Hauptmann in IR 140 in the 1914 rank list, promoted to Major on 20.5.1914 and transferred to IR 98. On mobilization, he took command of I./RIR 130 and was wounded with that unit in February 1915.

 

Still a Major in the 1919 Dienstaltersliste, he is listed as an Oberstleutnant a.D. in the Ehrenrangliste.
