Hello, it's sad that it took him 77 years and his wife couldn't make it. Peeloo

Hello Kabl.
Very sad indeed.
Here is his Volksbund entry -
Name: Heinrich Hunte
Date of birth: 16.01.1910
Place of birth: Böbber
Death/missing date: 15.09.1943
Death/missing place: 2km westl. Byki-Baltutino 2/8 km ostw.
Service rank: Obergefreiter
He was killed by shrapnel to the head.
Heinrich Hunte is buried in the military cemetery in Duchowschtschina (Russland)
During the re-interment activities in his original burial location, it was not possible to identify him without any trace of doubt, so he has been buried as an "unknown soldier" in the cemetery Duchowschtschina.
Endgrablage: Block 6 - Unter den Unbekannten.
Kind regards,
Will.

Hello,
It took so long because Russia opened the archives very late...
Until 2020 he was considered missing (from the German side) because the regimental/division papers were in Russian “captivity”.

Will,
Thank you for the info...
Great...

Sad story but now the family knows what happened.
