    Hmmmm....

    The "Artillerie-Oberzeugsverwalter 1.klasse" is the highest (VI.) pay-grade of the Artilleriezeugsbeamte (Artillery Depot Officials). Equivalent of the army colonel.

    Fast career :)

    ...I found in schematismus another officer of IR.91 named Franz Troschl (maybe father, was born 1869), its possible that the last decree belonged to him...

    its possible that the last decree belonged to him...

    The elder Franz Troschl is listed in the 1918 Rangliste des k.u.k. Heeres as a Artilleriezeugsverwalter with seniority of 1 November 1916.
