I am trying to locate information on an Oberleutnant Franz Lessy of k.u.k. Feldjägerbattalion 15. I think the photo was taken sometime during the period 1914 – 1918. My understanding is that Feldjägerbattalion 15 ceased to exists in 1890 and was not reformed until sometime in 1914 (happy to be corrected).
I have been unable to identify any Lessy, never mind Franz, in any of the rank lists that I hold, so I am assuming that the name is wrong. Any all help gratefully accepted.
Regards,
Ian

Re: Oberleutnant Franz Lessy - Help needed
I think I have found my man. There is a Leutnant Friedrich (not Franz as I wrote in my earlier message) Lessy - Landwehrinfanterieregiment Nr.32 (1906 k.k. Landwehr und der k.k. Gendarmerie Schamatismus). His seniorority is 01 Jan 1892 and he is listed as a Leutnant im Verlhaltnis der evidencz der Landwehr.
