    Unteroffizierschule Neubreisach in Elsaß

    Hello all, I totally agree that the Unteroffiziersvorschulen had complete other rules than the Unteroffiziersschulen. The cadets at the non-commissioned officers’ preparatory school (Unteroffiziersvorschulen) were not military personnel. Unlike the non-commissioned officers’ school...
