His fame as a hero grew out of an
incident which happened when he was
in his home town, Baden Baden, on
furlough. A three-story building was
in flames. A mother with an infant in
her arms appeared at one Of the third
story windows. All ways of escape
back Of her were cut off and the side
of the building was sheet of flame
No one dared to rescue the woman, no
one but Lorenz. Hastily splicing two
ladders together he assembled to the
window, took the two in his arms and
started to descend. When down about
half way, the fire burned the ladder
out beneath and the three fell about
IS feet, but they escaped with little
injury.
All Of the above took place when
