Eichheimer was born in Bensheim. He joined the Bavarian army as a Feldsher on 21 August 1786 and took part in campaigns against France, Austria, Prussia and Russia from 1790 to 1812. Afterwards he was chief of the medical service (Chef des Sanitätswesens) in the army of general Karl Philipp von Wrede in the rank of Oberstarzt.[2] He was advanced to the rank Major General (MC) in 1826 and died in Munich,[3] where he lived at Sonnenstraße 18 around 1850.[4]

References and notes
- ↑ In German personal names, von is a preposition which approximately means of or from and usually denotes some sort of nobility. While von (always lower case) is part of the family name or territorial designation, not a first or middle name, if the noble is referred to by surname alone in English, use Schiller or Clausewitz or Goethe, not von Schiller, etc.
