Looking for information about a soldier killed in Italy 1943

[ironcross.se]

I´m trying to find out information about my wifes grandfather who died in Italy 1943.
This I know:
Hes name was WOLFGANG GÜnther.
He was born in Dresden Aug 14th 1905.
He was employed at Carl Zeiss
He´s rank was Leutnant.
He died on Dec 22nd 1943 at "Kriegslazarett 934" in Aquila/Italy.
He was buried at "the Militrfriedhof in Cortina d´Amprezzo/Italy.
In 1957 he was moved to "Soldatfriedenhof in Pordoi/italy.
He´s family fled to Swden with the help of the swedish count Folke Bernadotte just before the bombings of Dresden.

I would like to know how I can find he´s serialnumber and what unit he belonged to since my mother in law don´t know anything about he´s whereabouts during the war

You could contact the VdK (Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge e.V.) or the Cemetery (Kriegsgräberstätte) at Pordoi to find out his EKM (Dogtag) number.

This number will tell you also a unit number but it could be another unit-number than the unit he served when he was killed.

The best you can do is contact the WASt (Deutsche Dienststelle) at Berlin and fill in a tracing request.
