    Alois was the rank of Obergefreiter. Throughout his military service he was awarded the War Merit Cross 2nd Class with Swords. Alois was with a supply company serving in North Africa specifically near Marsa Matruk when on September 1st 1942 he was killed by a low flying aircraft. I’m assuming it was a Strafing Run. He is buried in the military cemetery in El Alamein. Any additional info on him is greatly appreciated. From my collection.
