Hope everyone had a good holiday and start to the new year.
While visiting family in Michigan this past week I was able to look through my Great-Great-Grandfather's war record booklet. I was able to find he was in the 3 Eskadron KB 5en Chevaulegers-Regiment - Erzherzog Friedrich von Oesterreich.
There was even a fold out page listing every battle he was involved in (which was luckily done on a typewriter).
While I do speak German fluently, the cursive is a pain to read and I was hoping someone could help me with the handwritten sections.
First section of interest is learning which medals he received, which are listed here:
I am able to make sense of about half of them, but the rest are difficult.
Anyone who can help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Joe
