CaroleW's link will give you their grave details and unfortunately their detailed records appear to be among those that did not survive as CaroleW alluded to.

Do you have a sub to Ancestry to see the war diaries, if not they are also available to download at the National Archives ?

It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,
