This is not true. The Kriegsarchiv in Vienna has documents on soldiers, too!

I have in my hand a document on the decoration of the ancestor of one of my clients. He was a simple gunman! And the document was there and was handed over to me by the Hungarian Delegation. But the database is gappy, many documents are missing, unfortunately. Here are their contact details.

The letter was in German which I had translated. Two years later I wrote to them again. This time in English. They daisy aid the same thing and they said " last time we wrote you in German. This time in English. " Seems they keep good records but not of soldiers who weren't officers. My grandfathers Max Kreisz and Meyhardt Roth both served in the Hungarian army. Carol Karp
