On 03/03/1945 Hans was wounded by hand grenade and subsequently died in hospital on 10/03/1945.
The massive Soviet Vistula-Oder Offensive trapped the Hermann Göring Panzerkorps in the Heiligenbeil Pocket along with the rest of the 4.Armee. In February, the Heer's élite Panzergrenadier-Division Großdeutschland was attached to the corps.
Despite several breakout attempts, the Panzerkorps had to be evacuated by sea to Swinemünde in Pomerania. Upon landing, it was thrown back into combat, defending the Oder-Neisse line against Soviet attacks through mid-March. To bolster the Korps' strength, the elite Panzergrenadier-Division Brandenburg was attached to the unit.
On 03/03/1945 when Hans was engaged in this defensive action, he was wounded by hand grenade and subsequently died in hospital on 10/03/1945.
