This states that his date of death is unknown. This is a litle unclear; did he survive the war, but then vanish into relative obscurity? Or did he die or go missing in the war's closing days, thus no certain information can be ascertained owing to the confusion at the time? I seem to recall reading that Keitel was mourning a lost son(s) while in prison in Nuremberg, but I also believe he had more than one son. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.163.90.86 (talk) 00:03, 29 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

He did survive the war and survived long after, according to some sources.[1].Sylvain1972 (talk) 01:47, 2 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
The latest revision to the page as of now removed the category about his date of death being unknown and suggests that he is still living at the age of 102. While that is certainly possible, is there any corroboration on it? If true, it would have to make him one of the oldest living German WW2 veterans, and being the son of a Class A war criminal, it seems like it would have been noted somewhere.
