Füsilier-Regiment 122 - Urgent informations needed

[JensF.]

Hi guys,

I search all informations about the württemberger Füsilier-Regiment 122 (Heilbronn). Especially a short history when it took part in which battles. Thanks!

IR 122 History

Dear Jens; I think that I recently have seen a history of the württemberger Füsilier-Regiment 122, and one of the following: IR 121, IR 123, or IR 124, for sale on ZVAB.com or abebooks.com. If one or two of these wuerttemburgishe Regimenten had histories written after WK I , very likely they all did. I have a friend whose family served in at least two of them, so they caught my eye. So log onto those and do a search. I think they were on sale in Germany.

Many thanks! I found the books at abebooks but I only need a short battle history.

Jens, I am scanning the four pages with the history of the 26th Division and e-mailing it to you directly. Tony

I picked up on that too after I sent the scans of the 26th Div to Jens. Jens, if you want the same scans of the 105 Div, let me know. Tony

Many thanks Jan! One question:

1917
Lothringen
Aisne
Höhe 344
Béthincourt

Is it "Höhe 344" or "Höhe 304" (near Mort Homme/Verdun)? Because Bethincourt is a village north of Cote 304; I know this area very good.

Tony, could you scan them for the 105. too? Many thanks for the help guys!

Hello,

It is Höhe 344 north of Verdun.

Jan

[JensF.]

Ok, got it. It is on the right/east bank of the Meuse near Samogneux. Just thought it was maybe a typo. Thanks Jan.

[Tony & Kaiser]

Tony, could you scan them for the 105. too?

OK, as soon as I get home. I am busy here at work...uh...defending Canada.
