KC Holder Heinz Schlegel - info needed urgently!!!

Hi fellows,

I urgently need infos on Oberst Heinz Schlegel:
* 16.01.1904 Halle/Saale
+ 07.05.2001
Ritterkreuz am: 23.10.1944
Kommandeur GrenRgt 222

Please post all information you have.

Most important for me is to know
- where he died or
- an actual contact to his family.

I appreciate any advice!

Hi, Nordlich. I am not sure, but taken into account that He died in a Bremen, maybe it is his grave. http://grabsteine.genealogy.net/tomb.ph ... =S&lang=en . I'm also looking for information about Hienz Schlegel and will be glad if you share what you already found about him.

Hi Salex,
Heinz Schlegel died in Bremsen (or Bremen). Maybe the name of the town is misspelled.

He had the rank of Oberst and was the commander of 222. Grenadierregiment He was awarded with the RitterKreuz (Knights Cross) on the 23rd of october 1944.
