Graves in Poland
Here are 3x Grave inscriptions I am not able to decipher, if anyone can clarify any of these names it'd be a big help.
I think they could be in Jaslo, Poland but open to correction on that.
Grave A )
Grave B)
Grave C)
I have tried using different cameras/lenses/different days lighting conditions and this is as clear as I can get them unfortunately.
Thanks for checking !

Grave A )
Looks like Siegfried Hofer or Hafer
Possibly:
Nachname:Hofer
Vorname:Siegfried
Dienstgrad:Unteroffizier
Geburtsdatum:07.06.1915
Geburtsort:Kirchbichl
Todes-/Vermisstendatum:07.09.1939
Todes-/Vermisstenort: Korczyna
Grave B)
Joseph Kellner
No direct hit for a Joseph, but according to the volksbund site, there are 7 Kellners listed who died in '39. IF that's the year we're looking for....
Grave C)
No idea on that one....
