Jacky Platteeuw Posted 24 April , 2005 Share Posted 24 April , 2005 Indeed was informed yesterday at the Gate of the death of Charles Kuentz. May he rest in peace. Beneath you can find a photo taken last year after an extremely moving Last Post Ceremony where Charles and Harry Patch met and shook hands. Chalres Kuentz is the gentlemen in the white raincoat, Harry is sitting in the wheelchair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christina Holstein Posted 24 April , 2005 Share Posted 24 April , 2005 Charles Kuentz attended the commemoration ceremony at Mondement, Marne, each year and made his own speech. He was a grand old man indeed. Go in peace, Charles, and thank you. Christina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Furnell Posted 24 April , 2005 Share Posted 24 April , 2005 I had only recently learned that Mr Keuntz was still alive,and had never heard of any other German veteran before that. I do hope that his story was recorded and can be passed on. Enjoy the rest,Herr Kuentz. Auf Wiedersein. Simon and family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
