Help in research Generalleutnant

[Humberto Corado]

hello,

I am looking for info about Generalleutnant Conrad von Cochenhausen, I know that he Committed Suicide the 13 Dec 1941 by Lyubovska, Orel, USSR and I would like to know if anybody know's why he did that at this stage of Russian campaing. He was Commander of the 134th Infantry-Division (05 Oct 1940-13 Dec 1941) when he died

Thanks in advance

near Livny.

Thank you Harmel for your help, I think that maybe we never know for sure if he commit suicide or was KIA.

Just noticed an error on my own website. Date of death should read "13 Dec. 1941", not "13 Feb. 1941" (as you can see from the last line of his career data, where the date is correct). Sorry about any confusion.

Hello Mike,

nice to know that is your web site, just one question, do you know why he commit suicide?

Dear Humberto, I hate to say it but your question will be unanswered. A more appropriate question would be: is there more detailed account available about the situation when he commited suicide? (sorry, I don't have any)

Asking naively "why suicide?" is, in my humble opinion, too disrespectful for the man who had to choose to kill himself...

just one question, do you know why he commit suicide?
