Croats in WW1 Austro-Hungarian Army

Hello,

I am looking for more information about my great-grandfather, Ante Curkovic (1877-1918) who was born in the Duvno (now Tomislavgrad) region of Bosnia and Hercegovina.

During the last two years of WWI, he was said to have fought for the Austro-Hungarian army in Galicia near the Romanian border. Apparently, he survived the war but died shortly thereafter. A relative told me he died of botulism but church records state that he died as a result of a cold (maybe Spanish flu?).

I tried to rent a microfilm from the LDS of military records but was told that the material was restricted.

I am curious and would like to learn more about him. I will be in Vienna for a very brief period of time late this year and would appreciate any help or pointers in helping me learn more about my great-grandfather.
