Paul--
I've followed with interest your research into the fate of Fritz Steinhoff and the crew of U-873 after they relinquished their boat at Portsmouth naval Shipyard.
I've got some things that may be of interest to you, including a line on some original glossies of the boat and her crew that were taken at the time she came into Portsmouth.
You may recall a few years ago we met at a talk I gave to the Metro West Dive Club on the OREGON. I look forward to seeing you again soon--in two days actually! I'll be at the Propellor Club meeting and I'm sure we'll have the chance to chat a bit there.
Regards, Jack Rutledge
