József Nagysándor

From October to December he successfully prevented the Austrian garrisons at Arad and Temesvár (present-day Timișoara) from making any contact.

When János Damjanich took the leadership of the Banat Corps he was appointed to the general of the cavalry brigade.

He was awarded second class order of merit for his valor by the involvement in the Second Battle of Szolnok on 5 March 1849 in which he persecuted the remainder of the enemy forces.

On 2 August 1849, after the crossing of Tokaj he clashed with the Russian Tsarist army – outnumbering the Hungarians nearly six to one – near Debrecen and sustained a defeat.

When he wanted to join with his officers to the battalions of Bem in Lugos (present-day Lugoj), after the proclamation of Görgei's military dictatorship he followed him and laid down the arms in Világos.
