A hundred and fifty two German soldiers killed on the Eastern Front are exhumed from a village cemetery where they had been lying in unmarked and forgotten graves since 1945. Of note were two bodies with amputations, some bodies with splints and tourniquets, bodies with severe war wounds, numerous ID tags as well as a few wedding or military rings. The bodies were exhumed in order to be reburied in a large centralised German military cemetery under the care of the Volksbund.
