Looking for ANY and ALL information on Unit 11/NJG5 that my Grandfather Otto Karl Tillack was in.

Dear all and especially Char(lotte),

according to the "Namentliche Verlustmeldung" (i.e. the loss report issued by the unit and sent to the German supreme command), the "next of kin" person named is:

Ehefrau
Charlotte Tillack
Plümkenau O/S

At this period of war (spring 1944) it was still good practice, that the burial took place at the home-town of the deceased, i.e. the living place of the closest relative - in this case where the wife (+child/children) lived. If not married, where the parents lived.
This ist true for all dead, who died inside the "Reich" (Germany in its frontiers 1937 + Ostmark/Österreich/Austria + Sudentengau + Westmark/Alsace-Lorraine) and until ~ October 1944.

So ... a good place to search for the grave is: Plümkenau O/S (O/S = Oberschlesien / Upper-Silesia) - since 1945 called
Radomierowice, Gmina Murów, Województwo opolskie, Polska/POLAND . (50° 55′ 49″ N, 18° 1′ 55″ E)

If the wife only temorarily lived in Plümkenau, and if the family home address (also named as last home address on the loss report) was:
Wierschutzin, Krs. Lauenburg, Pommern ... since 1945 Polen,
this is the second best place to search. Here the polish names: Wierschutzin=Wierzchucino, Lauenburg=Lębork, Pommern=pomorskie, Polska/POLAND . Or uses the geo-coordinates: 54° 47′ 15″ N, 18° 0′ 13″ E

Good luck !
Most Kind regards,
Uwe / Karlsruhe, Germany
