"Karl Aloys zu F\u00FCrstenberg (26 June 1760 \u2013 25 March 1799) was an Austrian military commander. He achieved the rank of Field Marshal and died at the Battle of Stockach. The third son of a cadet branch of the House of F\u00FCrstenberg, at his birth his chances of inheriting the family title of F\u00FCrst zu F\u00FCrstenberg were slight; he was prepared instead for a military career, and a tutor was hired to teach him the military sciences. He entered the Habsburg military in 1777, at the age of seventeen years, and was a member of the field army in the short War of the Bavarian Succession (1778\u201379). His career progressed steadily during the Habsburg War with the Ottoman Empire. In particular he distinguished himself at \u0160abac in 1790, when he led his troops in storming the fortress on the Sava River. During the French Revolutionary Wars, he fought with distinction again for the First Coalition, particularly at Ketsch and Fr\u0153schwiller, and later at the Battle of Emmendingen. He was stationed at key points to protect the movements of the Austrian army. With a force of 10,000, he defended the German Rhineland at Kehl, and reversed a bayonet assault by French troops at Bellheim; his troops also overran Speyer without any losses. By the end of the War of the First Coalition, at the age of 35, he had achieved the rank of Field Marshal. During the War of the Second Coalition, he fought in the first two battles of the German campaign, at Ostrach, 21 March 1799, and at the Battle of Stockach, 25 March 1799. At the latter, while leading a regiment of grenadiers, he was hit by French case shot and knocked off his horse. He died shortly afterward."@en .
