He was at the killing fields of Verdun and during the battle at Fort Vaux where thousands of soldiers lost their life in vain. He was released after 4 years and came home in 1920.
Nevertheless, one of his hands stayed disabled after the war, that’s why he was not called to arms during World War II.
Together with his wife Katharina he had three children: Franz Xaver, Josef and Katharina.
