I recall reading in a book on WW1 that by 1917 nearly two-fifths of the KuK Army’s junior officers and NCOs were actually Germans seconded to them by Berlin. It also asserted that the Austro-Hungarian soldiers ought *better* under this leadership than under their KUK predecessors, presumably because they were more efficient.


I had supposed that the book concerned was Norman Stone’s *The Eastern Front*, but though it makes mention of this matter, I don’t think it is the right one. In particular I can’t find the word “Reichsdeutsch” anywhere, which I distinctly remember, as the book in question was where I first learned it.


Any thoughts on what book it might have been? Or have I just not re-read TEF carefully enough?

That's a very specific question and one I'm nowhere near being able to answer, sorry. But it's still nice to see you back here after your long absence. Welcome back! I'd like to see you post more here.

I doubt if I'll be able to answer this question either.

However, if you're interested in the Austro-Hungarian Army in the First World War, this book became available in paperback from Amazon just yesterday:
