The name of the Feldlazarett (field hospital) in Greece could perhaps be Rethymno (correct
writing)

11044
Dear Mr. Stadtoberinspektor (his title),
Unfortunately I have to send you the sad news that your son Gerd died a hero's death on 21 July 1942. Your son,our Oblt. Kielhorn was in action against enemy troop assembly points northeast of Kosbov late on the morning of 21 July. He led a flight of 7 aircraft. In his approach flak hit his left motor. He then dropped his bombs and attempted to reach German lines which were north and east of the Donez on one motor. His aircraft then started to burn. While his managed to jump and survive he died faithfully performing his duty. His comrades, one of whom was injured (the radioman), buried him about 25 km northeastwards of the confluence of the Donez and Don rivers. I would like to express to you in the name of the group my heartfelt condolences for this most difficult loss. With your son the group hast lost one of its best officers. Gerd was an especially gifted flyer. t the same time he fulfilled the position of technical officer for the group. All of the officersand men in the group valued him as our best comrade. Respectful of his heroic deeds and with pride he will remain honored in our memories.Comment
