Default Researching a German soldier

I'm trying to find information on my fiancee's great uncle, Adolf Hausladen, Wehrmacht soldier a who was killed in World War II. A long while back I managed to decipher the German war graves site and found only one Adolf Hausladen, who was a grenadier and killed in early 1945 in Hungary. I unfortunately at the time didn't write the info down and now can't see to make my way through the German-only site. Does anyone have a better grasp of German to find Adolf on there or suggest other places to search for possible information on him? Thanks!

Corporal, born 27 April 1924 in Regensburg, KIA/MIA 19.3.1945, buried in Veszprem, Hungary. Burial place is Block 4 Row 7 Grave 293. Cemetery is a 7,000 sq meter plot next to the city cemetery.

The address is Deutscher Soldatenfriedhof Veszprém Vámosi úti Gemeindefriedhof József Attila u. 40 H-8200 Vezprém. A sketch of the location is attached.

For more info try here:
Deutsche Dienststelle (WASt)
However you'll gotta pay about 30 bucks and you'll have to confirm your fiancee's kinship in written form.
It's worth it though, you may get some detailed information there and copies of original documents concerning the casualty
