About 2 executed Unterführer's from 11. SS-FE-Btl. in Slovenia. Their names are Alex Kristiansen and Walter Boehl (or Böhl). They were executed on 14.10.1944. The two NOV-officers, who interogated them, were Ivan Sirnik (partisan name Mirko; he was a squad-leader of intelligence-platoon of Lackov odred) and Mirko Tretjak (partisan name Romi).

As a family member I have tried for several years to find informations about Walther Bøhl`s dead and as a new member in this forum I would like see if I can find informations what happened to him and where he is burries. I have written the the museum who have informations about his trial but without any response from them.
Best regards
