Isn't he - as too many others - buried in La Cambe, Normandy? I think I saw his grave there. Too bad I did not take a photo back then.

Does exist a pic of Bracker and of Bando?

Does exist a pic of Bracker and of Bando?

I did not find one yet and would love to see.

Some months ago I found, on the forum of a german site about WW2,the organization chart of the 12th SS Panzer Regiment,with a small pic for every company commander except Bracker and Buettner,but the one of Bando was there.It was a small pics,the only thing that I remember about him is that he was blond (if I remember well!)
Hope that could this be useful for you,Panzerass,if you want to see a pic of Bando;I'm sorry that I don't remember the name or how I found it.

[Reader3000]

I think I know the one. Yes - and that's the only table that presents a photo of Berlin and of Bando. Not sure who made the table overview and where I found it either. But I have it on my hard-drive, too.

Did you know who was the chief of the 7th Kompanie after Bräcker's death?And also after the death of Hstuf Pfeiffer, Ustuf Porsch and Hstuf Junge?
Thanks

Could be in Hubert Meyer's book somewhere. But at the moment I don't have time to dig it up. (university reading to get an idea for writing a graduation-paper about a middle ages tpoic is very time consumpting these days. )

[Ste]

Was the Standarten-Oberjunker Joachim Bieback (21.02.1925-25.8.44) to comand the 5th Kompany after the death of Porsch?

[Ste]
