"Toma pl. Vučetić, potpukovnik austrijske vojske, rođen u Brinju 1768. godine, a umro 1832. godine." 😀

These two sources are already in disagreement: one says: "Vuchetich"; the other: "Wuchetich".
I tend to prefer the spelling the subject himself uses.
See:
1815: https://archive.org/details/militrschematis01kriegoog/page/n322
and
1816:

good point, I quite agree on that.
I read: "Vucketich" instead of: "Vuchetich".
The first letter transcribed as lower cast H differs clearly from the other ones. The lower cast H ends with a loop below the writing line.
Vuchetich
Major
Von deutschbanater Gränitz
Rgt
= Thomas Edler von Vuchetich (died Temesvar, 28 June 1832)
Major: Vukassovich, (Chev. Peter): 2nd National Granz Infanterie Regt.

Is there a proper name for “old German” script?:

Of possible interest.
Spot on - yes, I got the d at the start and thought it would not be a line unit. Vukassovich is often spelt Wukassovic at this time and Grenz is Granz with an umlaut over the a.
I hope everyone else gets an idea of what we are up against in the Kriegsarchiv.
Thank you David, so with this indication, searching in the Militär-Almanach 1814 among the regiments of the Division Hardegg I think «Viukctich» is actually the Major «Wucschih» from the cadres of the Grenz Regiment nr. 12 Deutschbanatisches
Looks like Regt for regiment at the bottom and Von on the left, so he is stating his regiment.
