Great thread!
Here is a death card (Sterbebild) and photo of Hans Zierer who was a member of Gebirgs Sanitäts Kompanie 1/54, 1. Gebirgs Division.
Name: Hans Zierer
Service rank: Obergefreiter
Date of birth: 28.11.1916
Place of birth: Vilshofen
Death/missing date: 27.06.1941
Death/missing place: bei Romaniki
His cause of death is noted as Gefallen: Infanterie Geschuß Herz (Killed in action: Infantry shot, heart)
Hans Zierer has probably been transferred as an unknown soldier to the military cemetery Potelytsch, Ukraine.
Unfortunately, during our re-interment activities, we were not able to recover all the fallen German soldiers from his original burial place and transfer them to the cemetery Potelytsch. It is, however, possible that Hans Zierer is one of the German soldiers whose remains have been recovered, but whom it has not been possible to identify, in spite of all our efforts.
Grave site: wahrscheinlich unter den Unbekannten.
