Johann Ulrich von Salis-Soglio

[2] He served as a mercenary in Bavaria between 1812 and 1815, fighting in the War of the Sixth Coalition, and in the Netherlands between 1815 and 1839, reaching the rank of major-general.

[2] Salis-Soglio returned to Switzerland in 1839 and joined the general staff of the Swiss Army with the rank of colonel in 1841.

[2][3] In August 1847, Salis-Soglio was dismissed from his army position due to his support for the Sonderbund alliance.

[2] Salis-Soglio was accused of high treason, but was not put on trial due to the prioritization of national reconciliation.

[2] After the war, Salis-Soglio lived in Bergamo, South Tyrol, and Munich, before retiring to Chur in 1855.
