Danes in German Army Service in WW1

[Paul Christiansen]

Has anyone a good reference they can give me that discusses the
service of Danes drafted into the German army during WW1?

It may be of interest that a significant number of Danes served in the
Australian Army in World War 1 ~

For their records go to ~
http://naa12.naa.gov.au/

Click on - Guest - on the bottom left corner ~

next page ~ in 'Keyword' write denmark
and in 'Dates' write 1914 - 1920 and then Search in bottom left

Next page click on 'Display' and you will get service records of 365 items.

Also note that the names with a 'View digital' will give you photo copies
of the ORIGINAL service records ~ pay books ~ medical records ~
courts martials ~ POW records, etc ~ some with as much a 50 documents!

Amazing stuff them Aussies have put together ~~ fascinating!

For Norway
~ same procedure ~ just write norway in 'Keyword' instead
