Ron,
U 61's KTB describes the officer taken prisoner as a "Leutnant", who was the ship's navigating officer. The KTB uses a misture of German and English terms to describe the ranks of the prisoners ("able seaman", but also "heizer").
U 61's KTB also notes that Warner's CO, first officer, and engineering officer were killed in torpedo attack.
Best wishes,
Michael
