According to the Volksbund, Karl was born on April 22nd 1928 in Hohenwarth . He held the rank of Grenadier. The card states that he served as a Panzer-pioneer. It says that on May 5th 1945, Karl drowned near Tittmonning in the Salzach river. He would have been 17 years old. It also looks like he’s wearing a panzer uniform in the photo but I could be wrong. Definitely an interesting card. I’m not sure what specific unit he served with, or how exactly he ended up drowning.
