Alfred Kraus
Alfred Kraus (16 January 1924 – 17 March 2005) was a German footballer. He played club football with Eintracht Frankfurt. Alfred Kraus, nicknamed ''Bubi'', debuted in 1941, aged 17 in a cup tie at GfL Darmstadt and right away scored 4 goals. From 1941 until 1944 he was Eintracht's top goal scorer with 20 goals or more. In the same year a newspaper report about his goalscoring touch against Hanau 93 almost caused him trouble. This report had been put in his health registration and his name underlined in red which meant that a person was supposed to be drafted to the World War II front line. During a second physical examination the sergeant left Kraus alone and hid the underlined newspaper report in his chest pocket. In 2003 Kraus stated that he still owns this newspaper report. In 1942 Eintracht caretaker Willi Balles managed to move Kraus from his assignment in a march battalion to another one as court clerk in Frankfurt where he could continue playing football.

March Battalion
A march battalion (french: Bataillon de Marche, , it, Battaglione di marcia or ) is a military unit comprising replacement and support personnel, usually for a regiment or brigade-sized formation. The term rear echelon – especially in the armies of the UK and other Commonwealth countries – refers to units serving analogous functions, at military formations of any size. These have included, during the early 20th Century, the replacement depots of the US Army, which supported larger formations, such as field armies (or "numbered armies"), army groups or entire military theaters. A march battalion, in the narrowest and original sense of the term, is a temporary unit made up of assorted replacement personnel destined for the regular battalions of an infantry regiment or brigade. March battalions were intended to maintain military discipline and give personnel a command structure while they were being transferred to operational duties and/or during a transitional period.

German Empire
The German Empire (),Herbert Tuttle wrote in September 1881 that the term "Reich" does not literally connote an empire as has been commonly assumed by English-speaking people. The term literally denotes an empire – particularly a hereditary empire led by an emperor, although has been used in German to denote the Roman Empire because it had a weak hereditary tradition. In the case of the German Empire, the official name was , which is properly translated as "German Empire" because the official position of head of state in the constitution of the German Empire was officially a "presidency" of a confederation of German states led by the King of Prussia who would assume "the title of German Emperor" as referring to the German people, but was not emperor of Germany as in an emperor of a state. –The German Empire" ''Harper's New Monthly Magazine''. vol. 63, issue 376, pp. 591–603; here p. 593. also referred to as Imperial Germany, the Second Reich, as well as simply Germany, ...
