==Early life and service==
Ludwig Gaim was born in Deggendorf, the Kingdom of Bavaria, on 1 April 1892. He joined an artillery unit in the Imperial German Army during August 1914. He served on the Verdun Front and was awarded the Iron Cross Second Class on 21 October 1914. He continued artillery duty until July 1916. He then transferred to the ''Luftstreitkräfte'' for aviation duty with ''Flieger-Abteilung'' (''Artillerie'') 293 (Flier Detachment (Artillery) 293). He flew artillery direction missions and other reconnaissance with this unit until wounded on 6 January 1917. He was promoted to ''Vizefeldwebel'' on 25 May 1917. After recovery from his wound, he trained as a single-seater fighter pilot. Upon graduation, he was shipped to Italy to join ''Jagdstaffel 39'' (Fighter Squadron 39) on 27 June 1917. Between 25 October and 30 December 1917, he shot down five Italian aircraft. He was again wounded in action, while scoring his fifth victory.〔Franks et al 1993, p. 113.〕
Gaim accompanied ''Jasta 39'' upon its return to service on the Reims sector of the Western Front in March 1918. He would not score again before he left the squadron on 4 April 1918.〔
