Glenn J Posted 25 April Share Posted 25 April Vizefeldwebel Otto Selz was awarded the EK2 on 26 May 1917 whilst serving with Bavarian Landwehr-Infanterie-Regiment 15. The regiment was at this time under command 30. Reserve-Division in positional warfare in Lorraine. According to the regimental history, the regiment was in the sector around Jallaucourt (Gellshofen), about 40 kilometres South of Metz in May 1917.

GreyC Posted 25 April Share Posted 25 April (edited) Hi, as he was in a Bavarian unit you will find his military cv in the appropriate Kriegsstammrolle for WW1 on ancestry. GreyC Edited 25 April by GreyC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
