[edit] and then?

served 5 years in a Soviet prison camp... and then? it was released and came back to germany? or whatever? i think it should be explained better ;) --Lo'oris - ロホリス 23:36, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Unfortunately, I have no idea after that :\ You could try asking at axishistory.com, which is generally the best site for tracking down German soldiers from that period, but having been there myself, I'm pretty sure they don't know. Sherurcij ^{(Speaker for the Dead)} 01:06, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

The Link to his longest kill actually leads to a page about the American Civil War!!!! --81.104.172.174 01:48, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Matthias or Matthäus?

Both the German wikipedia and das-ritterkreuz.de give his first name as Matthäus.--217.230.227.149 09:08, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

I changed it accordingly in the article. But I don't know how to change the title, if someone else could do that, that'd be great.--217.230.227.149 09:15, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] K98

The current link for Hetzenauer's rifle goes to the Gewehr 98, the standard issue German rifle during World War One. It seems more likely that he would have used a Karabiner 98k, the Gewehr 98's replacement for World War Two which was also used as a sniper rifle. I could find no evidence one way or another on the given source website (being unable to understand German). 165.123.155.222 (talk) 22:56, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
