Need help with Swiss troop tag

I would love to find out what the tag means and perhaps find out if this guy is alive and possibly contact him, but not only am I not sure what name is written, (I can make out Peter, though not the last name)but I don't know what any of the other stuff means either.
Can anyone help out? I'll transcribe it the best I can since I don't know how to post a pic :

(F or I)ns (L, Le, or maybe K)hoch Peter
Fin. Kp. III 74
gorobenstr(<- best I could make out) 14
Flanil (mostly correct)

You have to scroll down a bit, a lot of reference stuff is at top.
