Prince Louis II, who volunteered to serve in the French Army from August 1914, particularly distinguished himself during the battle of Chemin des Dames, which lasted from 16 April to 24 October 1917. He received a mention in the dispatches of the Army Corps, which earned him the Croix de Guerre with silver gilt star.
