#G2019 Death Card for Franz Lindbauer a Fallschirmjäger KIA Battle of the Bulge
Original Second World War German death card for Franz Lindbauer who was a Fallshirmjäger killed in the Battle of the Bulge 9 January 1945 in Luxemburg. From the German War Graves Commission "Franz Lindlbauer is now resting in the war cemetery in Sandweiler among the unknowns. He could not be unequivocally identified during the remodeling work in the original grave site, so he was buried as an "unknown soldier" in the Sandweiler Cemetery. Name and personal data of Franz Lindlbauer are also listed in the memorial book of the Kriegsgraberstatten. You are welcome to order an excerpt from us. Please note that some Freundhofen do not have the current version, so your relative's name may not be listed there yet. If Franz Lindlbauer is related to you, and you want to be informed by us about changes in status, please fill out the form below. Please carefully check on the basis of your documents, whether it is really your relatives. If you are not sure, please state this in the text box of the form."
