C,
How many Jews served in the Regiment 41
during WW1 ?
All the information you forwarded , what source ?
You say that Jews were not considered a nationality
and therefore counted as Ukraineans.
Not much later they were considered a race.

Hardy....you could not be more wrong. Under the very benevolent rule of the
Habsburg Emperor our people did very well. They were a small %age of the
population...but they were close to 20% of the Reserve Officer Corp. There
were Jewish Generals etc...and if an officer made anti-Semitic comments to a
Jewish one they were charged.Many Jews were given titles of Nobility. The
Regiments had "Feldrabbiner".At the end of WW1 the second in command of the
whole Army was a Jew. Compare the lives of the Czernowitzers under Austria
with life under the Romanians!! I could go on..but that will do for a
start!! Cornel. PS and there was never an Austrian Dreyfus!

Cornel,
Jews were not counted at all .
No matter how patriotic they were and how much they loved the Kaiser.
My father was also a soldier who fought in Montenegro and at the Isonzo and
was wounded.
Our love for the Habsburgs was one-sided.
They fell apart after a senseless war that caused
millions of casualties without achieving anything
at all .
Should we be proud for participating in this war?
"But they killed our Ferdinand!"
