Unteroffizier Friendrich Schrems

Unteroffizier Friedrich Schrems was born on December 5, 1925, in Zell an der Mosel, Germany. He was part of 324-12/Fl.Ausb.Rgt 53, a unit that was converted in June 1944 into the Luftgau-Feld-Regiment-Belgien-Nordfrankreich. On September 9, 1944, this unit was disbanded, and its remaining forces were absorbed into Fallschirmjäger divisions.*9

The exact circumstances of his death remain unknown, but his memorial card states that he died at the age of 19 from injuries sustained on the Western Front. It is likely that, as a young soldier, he was part of a Fallschirmjäger division, was wounded, and was then taken to a military hospital in Dordrecht, where he succumbed to his injuries. He was initially buried in Row 19, Grave 13 in the German section of the general cemetery in Dordrecht. On July 15, 1947, he was reburied at the German military cemetery in Ysselsteyn, where he now rests in Block CP - Row 1 - Grave 13¹.
