Hello everyone,
I'm looking for more information about the fates of my two great-uncles, especially in which unit they served. They served in the German army, unfortunately both fell. Are there people who could help me? In the attachment I send materials from Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge e.V.
Thank you very much for your answers.
edit. I would like to add that Gautzsch is meant in Markkleeberg

Hello Ondrim
Not much help from here but I‘m not sure “Dubewka” is correct. There is a “Dubowka” though just north of Stalingrad. Here’s a period map I found. Good luck in your research.

Correct spelling "Dubowka" (Es ist richtig).
Дубовка (Russische Rechtschreibung).
Дуб (Eiche) - дубовый(eichen) u.a.
Дубовка (Russische Rechtschreibung).
Дуб (Eiche) - дубовый(eichen) u.a.

Quite a common name, could be anywhere.
Yes, there is one, but Germans never got that far. Date also does not match (March 1942).There is a “Dubowka” though just north of Stalingrad
