i have a article somewhere about the womens graves if i can find it i'll reproduce it and post it up

I would be more than interested to read that article. Another question though, are the names of the women known and shown on the graves?


Liebe Grüße,
Beate

Beate yes the names are on the graves, usually with the date of death and date of birth also.

theres another interesting grave just up from theirs on the end its a Russian sounding name with Hiwi underneath
