Hello, while searching for the fallen from our village I came across this in the list of casualties " Belan Karl, Lstlnfst., IR. Nr. 32, Ungarn, Lipto, Szentmihaly, 1896; gefallen (18./3.1916)" can anyone tell me what regiment he was in and where he had a supplementary district?I can't find anything about him.thank you

I don't think so, because the abbreviation LstInf. comes out as Landsturm-Infanterie-Regiment Nr.32 and not only inf.reg. 32.

Well, the abbreviation LstInfst. is the designation of a soldier - Landsturminfanterist or infantryman-domobrancier. These were the older gentlemen who were the last to enlist and, depending on their health (and whether they had had any military training beforehand), were assigned to military units of all kinds... in this case, the regular army (Heer) infantry regiment no. 32 (if the abbreviation IR. Nr. 32 is correctly spelled) If he served in one of the Landsturm units, the regiment number would look different - LstIR Nr. 32 (coincidentally, it also existed, and it was in the 106th Home Guard Division). So get it

Home Guard regiments No. 32 were of course two - one Landsturm (pre-Lithuanian) - from Nowe Sącz and one népfokelés (Zalitavian) - from Dess. But that wouldn't have been written in the IR in my opinion. No. 32.
Liptó is the Liptov county... right.
I don't know where the 32nd Regiment was garrisoned during the war. But the truth is that individual marching units were sent to other than the mother units - as needed.

Hmm. That's interestingly mixed up.The 32nd supplementary district should be Budapest, but Liptov county was under the 67th Prešov district. I think the abbreviation implies that it was a joint army. www.velka.vojna.szm.com
I thought of another possibility, he could have moved to Budapest (e.g. for work) and applied for conscription there.

So take that
My grandmother's brother's casualty list has the abbreviation: LstInfst. IR.Nr.35,8.Komp. He was in 1915 and was 19 years old. So he was not an older gentleman and did not serve long. Klimes
