About Andreas von Stoichevich
Lived 1751 – 1810 (aged 58–59).
Andreas Stoichevich (; 1753 - 6 October 1810) was an Austrian nobleman and general who fought in the Napoleonic Wars particularly in the Dalmatian Campaign where Napoleon's favorite general Marmont was caught off-guard. Stoichevich also led his regiment in four or five more battles, namely Sacile, Caldiero, Tarvis and Graz before retirement.
Biography Stoichevich was born in 1753 in Neštin, a Vojvodina village
On 18 February 1804 he was promoted to brigadier general and on 1 September 1805 became a major general.
In the War of the Fifth Coalition in 1809, Stoichevich fought under the divisional commander Baron Vinko Knežević when the corps structure underwent a change with Stoichevich being ordered by Archduke John to detach to fight against Auguste de Marmont in the Dalmatian Campaign. That was right after the mid-April Battle of Sacile and the late-April Battle of Caldiero that he mustered his regiment without respite and went into battle again. It was in the May 1809 Battle of Tarvis that he played a crucial role in ousting Napoleon's French Army and the General of the Division Marmont, though it cost him a victory. He was then put in charge of a brigade in Gospić.
On 25 September 1809, Stoichevich was promoted to Feldmarschalleutnant. He retired in 1810, and died the same year in Gospić.
