William Prellwitz with group 403. William Prellwitz is in the front row 3rd from the left with lighter clothes. This looks like Canada. Probably during his basic training at either Kamloops BC or Red Deer Alberta. Probably taken during the winter of 1942/43 or 1943/44.
William Prellwitz circa 1943. Date is a guess. Location unknown - might be Kamloops or Red Deer. William Prellwitz is on the viewers left. Looks as if it was taken at the same time and place as "William Prellwitz with group 403". Probably in Red Deer.

William Prellwitz circa 1943. Date is a guess. I think the fellow standing and facing the camera is William Prellwitz. The lack of conifer trees leads me to believe this is not in BC. Probably taken the summer of 1944 in Red Deer or England. Preparing for war.
William Prellwitz circa 1943 002. Date is a guess. Picture may have been taken in Kamloops BC or Red Deer Alberta during basic training.
William Prellwitz circa 1943. Date is a guess. Location unknown - probably Red Deer. William Prellwitz is standing. Looks like a Rocky Mountain foothill in the background.
William Prellwitz circa 1943. Date is a guess. Not sure of the location probably in Canada. William Prellwitz is on the viewers right.
William Prellwitz Aug 1944. This would have been taken in England while waiting to cross the channel.
Gravestone of William Pervis Prellwitz at Bergen-op-Zoom, 27Jul1987. He was killed in or near a town of Krabbendijk, Holland. Family lore says it was a sniper but I have no proof of this.
