KuK troops in Flanders 1918

[Hauptmann]

Hi all!

Who has knowledge on Kuk troops in Flanders in 1918, a friend of me found some graves and he is writing a book on cemetaries. He is looking for as much info possible on the men named in the first post here.

Another exceptional burrial is the one of foe example Josef Kadler an Austrian infanterist who was killed the 5th october 1918 and who was serving with 1/K.u.K. I.R. 5 and is burried at 9-1722. We found a few of his colleges to : Otto Meyer, K.u.K. Felder. 1 killed 27/10/1918, Demetre Ambrus of K.u.K.I.R. 62 killed 13/10/1918, Ilie Baboczou of 3/K.u.K.I.R. 62, killed 27/10/1918 and Feiwel Austrager of K.u.K.I.R. 29 who was killed the same day, Adolf Docekal, of the K.u.K. Jag.Btl. 25 killed 10th august 1918.

We will look into the matter!

Like I said in PM to hauptmann, and my friend 305 later confirmed, that some artillery units with 305mm and 420mm cannons were there.

That is the first time I did get anything on the matter ! Thanks Aljaz ! This is at least a start, and that makes me quite happy !

Indeed some information on the French front. Ajaz's source has a negative view on the KuK performance. Off course, Austro-Hungarian newspapers had a different view.
