<HTML>Hi Jon,
Just a slight correction K.Kapt Kurt-Eduard Engelmann (died 13.3.1943+) was posthumoustly (nach dem Tode) promoted to F.Kapt. w.e.f. 15.3.43.
This happened in a few cases where a commander was due for promotion and was killed. His promotion was granted nonetheless. Probably to help his dependants financially.
Regards
MPC

Anyone have access to a photo of the U-163 or its commander, KvK Kurt-Eduard Emgelmann?
(I am building a website focused on the USS Erie, PG-50, which was torpedoed by the U-163 on 12 November 1942, and want to include some pages with info and pictures of the U-163.)
