Re: Loss of Uffz. Altrieth on the 22.02.1940

Do you have access to the German KIA cards on Ancestry? He has one on there but my attachment allowance is maxed out so can not post it.
These are the basics but the card has more listed including the reason - it is written in sütterlin so hard to read. Something to do with an accidental death caused by a crash - also mentions the airframe & engines but I can't make out the rest of it.

Name: Adolf Altrieth
Rank: Unteroffizier Flugschüler
Birth Date: 10 Mrz 1915 (10 Mar 1915)
Birth Place: Sennfeld Adelsheim
Military Unit: 1 (Schüler) Komp Schule Flieger-Ausb Regt 71
Death Date: 22 Feb 1940
