My grandfather's brother was killed in this regiment in 1914. Does anyone know where this regiment fought at the beginning of the war?

Thank you for your response. Unfortunately, the date of death is unknown. The memorial to the fallen in Moutnice is one of the few that does not have a date of death, and Kramer's kramerius.nkp.cz has a print date of 19.12.1914. Which is the end of the year, so he was killed during 1914. I haven't found out more.

Hello,
If he is listed in the casualty list as of 19 December, then he was probably killed in October or November. The 24th Home Guard Regiment was assigned to the 40th Home Guard Infantry Brigade, which was part of the 2nd Army, at the beginning of the war. Assuming that this assignment lasted until the end of November (which I am not sure of, however, as there is no data for it later than September), it fought on the Eastern Front in October and November, or, more simply, on the southern part of the Halych front (around Stryj and Sambor) in October, and was transported north of Krakówa (north of Częstochowa) in November.
It would really be necessary to know a more precise date...
