Generalmajor Theodor Schneider-Kostalski
Generalmajor Theodor Schneider-Kostalski
Hi guys,
Does anybody have any information at all on Austrian Generalmajor Theodor Schneider-Kostalski? I can't find one scrap of information about him. In WW2 he was "ausser Dienst" (retired) but I don't know when he became General. In fact, I know nothing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
All the best,
Jason

Re: Generalmajor Theodor Schneider-Kostalski
Thanks for the link. No results for "Kostalski" during a search but there is a Generalmajor von Schneider". Probably not my guy because he was not a "von" but this noble prefix is sometimes incorrectly added to some officers.Lornito Uriarte Mahinay Jr. wrote:Try to find him here, http://www.austro-hungarian-army.co.uk/index.htm

Thanks for this info, VJK. I can't believe it is this hard to find information about a general! Do you have any dates for the listings above? Did he fight in WW1?VJK wrote:Hi Jason,

Hi Jason,
Unfortunately, what I posted is literally all the info I have on this General. As you say, it's hard to believe that there is no more available out there.
