Oberstleutnant Rudolf Haen (Eichenlaub winner)...
So how did Oberstlieutenant Haen die? Did he become distraught at the announcement that Germany had lost the war and challenged a jumpy and untrained guard? Did an opening in the wire prove to be too much temptation, then a mad dash and a blaze of gunfire? Did a guard, during the sortation of prisoners by rank, discover that Haen was a field grade officer and decide that one more Nazi, alive or dead, just wouldn’t matter? Did he simply die of exposure? This is all lost to history but perhaps in the memories of a few old veterans who were there, German and American, all facts of that day are recalled...

After the war, the remains of Rudolf Hain were recovered and moved to an Austrian Military Cemetery in Saint Johann, the Tyrol. Circumstantial evidence suggests that the Veteran’s Association of the 2nd Panzer Division was hard at work, recovering its honored war dead...

You will find there a pic of his grave and two "Chargierte" (members of the staff) of his "Burschenschaft" Germania (fighting student's fraternity) in "Vollwichs" (traditional official attire).

Explicitly I do not want to show the pic here !!

Alf, for both of us the same basic guidelines of this forum:

* No glorifying of nazism/fascism or those dictatorships, or other totalitarian dictatorships, is tolerated.

.... and I made a friendly hint for you, otherwise you will have problems :(
