Two brothers killed in action-further info sought!
 
Hi Guys, We have a copy of a death card which shows the loss of two brothers; Lt Hugo Seefried + 21.11.40 and Lt Fritz Seefried + 17.08.42.
Both were members of the Luftwaffe. Can anyone supply us with further information so that we can construct a page of remembrance for them both.

Kind regards

Melvin
