<HTML>Brian, Michael,
Per Gibson & Prendergast, it could be OL Neumann for sinking hospital ship Dover Castle with UC67. He was tried at Leipzig on June 4, 1921 and acquitted on the ground that doing so, he obeyed superior orders.
Patzig escaped to Danzig prior his trial in July 1921 but Lt Boldt and Ditmar were sentenced four years' imprisonement.
I don't know if they effectively underwent the sentence.
