Co.D 13th Marines

Hello all,

 

I have recently acquired a number of photographs of temporary American cemeteries in France during WWI. The attached photo is quite unique as it shows a single grave in the little village of Cauterets in the Haute Pyrenees region of France. The name on the grave is Pvt Julian H. Seifert, Co.D 13th Marines. A quick research shows me he died of accidental causes on 2-12-1919. Would anyone have more details of his demise? Cauterets was a rest area for men on leave. Today it is a ski resort.

 

Hope someone can shed some light on this marine.

 

Thanks,

Thought I might update you on my research. Still no cause of death but found his picture and hometown.

He was from Philadelphia, PA. He is listed as KIA on his photo, assuming it was easier to tell next of kin.
