Chris Boonzaier Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Very hard to pin down these.... I am guessing something in the Vogesen... you will need a lot of luck to find ANY info on a particular L.I.B.
Chris Boonzaier Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 The Battalion became the 3rd Battalion of the Landsturm-Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 48 in June 1918... so a small foothold...
