Below is a list of profiles for some of the 15th's soldiers whose last names begin with J, K, or L.

Some profiles also include a photo; some include pre- and/or post-war genealogical data. If alternative spellings of names are known, then they are listed within (parentheses). If an alternative last name is known, then it is listed separately, in its proper alphabetical location. Also shown is: the highest rank the soldier reached in the 15th; which part of the 15th they served in (either on the Field and Staff (F&S) or in one of its companies (A, B, C, etc.); their place of birth; and their residence at the time they joined the 15th.
