Re: Hptm. von Bothmer

Jaap,

If Von Bothmer committed suicide at Deelen he would have been buried at Arnhem and not in Duisburg. In a sense it is already strange that he was buried in Duisburg, most of the time (at that time period) KIA were stil heimatüberführt....aiiii... I see now that his home address was at Duisburg too...so nothing strange about being buried in Duisburg (as long as he died there....).

J.

Re: Hptm. von Bothmer

John,

Burial place seems logical, but I can hardly believe that Duisburg was the place where he committed suicide.
Can you see who signed the NVM? Falck?

Jaap
