First book represnts an initial pre-war period of service, the 2nd book WW1 service with K B 3 Prinz Karl Von Bayern Infantry Regiment.  The WW1 service of that Regiment includes:
 
1914
At the beginning of the First World War in 1914, the regiment was mobilized and sent to the western front under the supreme command of the 6th Army. The first major battle took place near Saarburg on August 20th. Fighting on the border in Lorraine followed shortly thereafter, and from the end of September the first battle on the Somme.
 
1915
In 1915 the regiment came from the 2nd Infantry Division to the newly formed 11th Infantry Division and was transferred to the Eastern Front . There it was involved in the breakthrough at Gorlice-Tarnow in May 1915 , the capture of Przemyśl on June 3, 1915 and the subsequent month-long push back of the Russians ( Great Retreat ). The victorious campaign across the Danube through Serbia followed in the autumn .
1916
In the Battle of Verdun in spring 1916, the regiment fought at Avocourt. At the beginning of May 1916, Height 279 was finally conquered, where the regiment established itself for defence. After a terrible death toll in just under three months, the regiment was disbanded. In the summer of that year the regiment took part in repelling the Brusilov offensive in Volhynia . From autumn 1916 the regiment fought on the right (III Battalion) and left flank (I and II Battalions) of the 11th Infantry Division during the successful offensive through the Carpathian Mountains against Romania .
 
1917/18
In 1917 the association was transferred back to the western front, where it took part in the battles in Alsace , on the Aisne , in Flanders and in the German offensive in 1918.
 
The regiment, which was almost always deployed at the focal point of the fighting, lost more than 5,000 men through death between 1914 and 1918.
