[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] GRAVE STONE TRANSLATION

[Michael & Maureen McHenry]

I would like to thank everyone (10) who provided a translation. I'm curious
that 3 of the translations inferred that they were soldiers. Imkampfe is not
in my German-English dictionary. The only word for soldiers is soldaten.
Also 2 translators said that the inscription suggests they actually died in
the cemetery. Below are the translations I received.
