Product Information
Specification
Austro-Hungarian Empire: Patriotic WW1 cap 
badge of the "Army Group Colonel General 
Archduke Eugen - 1916". 
Maker Marked by Gurschner in Vienna.
The Army Group "Colonel General Archduke 
Eugen" was named after its Commanding Officer 
and was consisted of the 11th and 3rd KuK 
Armies under the command of Colonel Generals 
Dankl von Krasnik and Kovess respectively. The 
Army Group executed the Trentino Offensive (or 
Battle of Asiago), a counteroffensive launched 
by the Austro-Hungarians on the Italian Front on 
May 15, 1916.
The Austro-Hungarian Army initially managed to 
brake through the Italian center and to advance 
up to the beginning of the Venetian plain (30km 
away from Vicenza). 
A Russian surprise offensive however, on Jun. 4, 
in Galicia, where the Russians managed to enter 
Austrian soil, forced the Austro-Hungarian Chief 
of the General Staff Conrad von Hötzendorf to 
withdraw half of his Divisions from Trentino and 
gave the Italians the chance to keep the situation 
under control.
