Ian Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I am looking for information on Oberstleutnant Karl Budiner. He was serving with Feldjagerbatalion 6 in 1916, 1917 and possibly 1918. He is listed in the 1917 Rangliste as a Major in FJB 6, but there is no mention of him in the 1918 Rangliste. I assume he died sometime between being promoted to Oberstleutnant in late 1917 or early 1918 but before the 1918 Rangliste was complied.

Ian Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 Thank you. Is there any idea of when he was promoted to Oberstleutnant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markgraf Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Ian: The Fremden Blatt listed his promotion 1917.11.21 http://anno.onb.ac.at/cgi-content/anno?aid=fdb&datum=19171121&seite=10&zoom=43&query="budiner"&ref=anno-search Medals: Signum Laudis Reichspost 1917.07.31 http://anno.onb.ac.at/cgi-content/anno?aid=rpt&datum=19170731&seite=5&zoom=33&query="budiner"&ref=anno-search Budapesti Közlöny (Gazette) 1918.06.02 mentioned him as Ret.

Ian Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 M Thanks for filling in the blanks for me. A little confused with his service in June/July 1917. He was invalided out due to war injuries? He then served in a Korpskommando in or near a war zone as a Oberstluetnant a.D. or d.R.? Regards, Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markgraf Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I guess the "natural attrition" is more likely. The problem is the newspapers are only secondary sources, some news was "slipped" in the time. He served in a Korpskommando when he was in the Armeestand, in the hinterland. Most likely his commander suggested him for the MVK 3 when he was in the frontline, but the administration delayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markgraf Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 One more thing: this book mentioned him some times https://books.google.hu/books?hl=hu&id=yqEiAQAAIAAJ&dq=editions%3AISBN320578149X&focus=searchwithinvolume&q=budiner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
