My fathers brother or the uncle I never got the chance to meet is buried at this cemetery. He was with the 17th Kav. Reg. 17 from Bamberg.
As I was born my fathers wish was that I get the same name his brother.

Ruhe in Frieden,
Robert

If you will provide me names of your relative, next time I will go there I will take some pics of the grave. Send me also by pm if you want!

Fascinating thread, and the amazing story of Luz Long and Jesse Owens is one I only recently heard about.
