Jan-Hendrik,
unfortunately this is not the same Lex...
some info on your man :
Hauptmann Fritx LEX
born 30.01.1917
killed / missing 02.01.1945
burried on Soldatenfriedhof Sandweiler (Luxemburg) - Block A Tomb 80
to my knowledge he was part of the battallion since Hungary, Normandy and the Ardennes
served as Chef Versorgungskompanie II/Panzer Lehr Regiment 130 and Chef 5./Panzer-Lehr-Regiment 130
in the end : Stellvertretender Kommandeur der II./Panzer-Lehr-Regiment
According to Ritgen ("Westfront 1944") : he was captured with two officers of the Panzer Lehr Regiment in a captured jeep on December 30th 1944 south of Bastogne after driving in an ambush. Probably he was shot as a spy (because they thought he was a Greif-kommando...)
Cheers,
Charles Steiner
