Konrad von Faber du Faur was born in Paris, France on the 27th of May, 1895. He had one older sister, Maria, who was born in 1893 and died in 1950, and a younger sister, Vera, who was born in 1898 and died in 1990. Vera is the author of this book.... With the outbreak of the War in August, 1914, Konrad entered the Imperial Army, serving in the Kavallerie (the cavalry), in a Schwere Reiter-Regiment. He fought in Belgium and France early in the War, and then on the Eastern Front, going deep into Russia, including territory which is now Lithuania, Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Latvia, Poland, Russia and Ukraine. He loved horses but found that they had value mostly for scouting. In a war of machine guns and high explosive shells, trenches and barbed wire, cavalry charges were obsolete.
