Blackhorse Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 The family is fairly certain he is Czechoslovakian Army, pre WW2. Does anyone have any information regarding him or his awards or his unit or anything for that matter. Thank you!
nickstrenk Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 (edited) I can help only with the translation of the text in the photograph. Private Ján Kolesár. 202nd Artillery Regiment,Communication Battery Kežmarok Slovakia What can we say about the private?He was not strong in spelling ,he wrote his name with mistakes.Probably ,he attended the schools in Austro-Hungarian Empire.We can say about him he was a good soldier.Because he is wearing 2 Shooters badges-Excellent Rifleman and Excellent Gun Finder? Kežmarok is a small town in the North of Eastern Slovakia. Wikipedia could not help us with his name he was not a General. Edited January 14, 2019 by nickstrenk
