    Prinz Eugen Soldbuch

    I've had this Soldbuch for a long time but have never figured out his last name. If you guys have some opinions, let me know. He died in a Field Hospital on 2 May 1945.

        I read EGS Groß-Betschkerek so I would say a volksdeutscher from serbian or rumenian Banat.

              Yes, the name is Kolovrat

              Heinrich Kolovrat born in Pardan near Modosch

              as T.K. already stated he was a Volksdeutscher

                    Jeff-

                    That's a great example of a Prinz Eugen Soldbuch! I really like that you can see the unique collar tab and of course the fact that he's wearing an overseas cap in the portrait photo (technically against regulations!) A really great Soldbuch with some nice combat awards no less! Thanks for sharing it with us

                      Thanks everyone. I thought the name was Kolovrat. Ian, I had tried just using the first four letters of his name in the German War Graves site and it never came up. I must have been doing something wrong. Now I know where he is buried. Rob, in your favorite Soldbuch, he's wearing cover also. Kind of a SS thing.

                        There are a lot of mistakes on the volksbund that have to be discovered. Even after almost 70 years. Believe me. I already experienced that

                          Jeff,

                          Do you have the date when he was wounded please?
                          Please also post the Lazarett page, we can sort out some locations about his place of death.
