Hello I am new to the forum, and would like to say hello to all. I am researching this soldier who was killed in action on the 23/2/45, and is buried in Rheinberg Cemetery. He was in the 8th Battalion when he was killed I would like to ask anyone who can provide details of where he would have been when killed. Thanks in advance for assistance.
