It is quite rare for a war diary to spell out the details of casualties in such detail, you have been lucky there!  Still, you were probably due some luck given the disappointments with the various service records.  I am delighted for you.

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,
Zoe
