Hello. Our museum (The HMCS ALBERNI Museum and Memorial) was given some artefacts of the German U-Boat U-1302 which were retrieved from the water after the HMCS THETFORD MINES sank her in 1945. Of particular importance to this collection we had donated is the shoulder board of the Oberfähnrich zur See who held that rank on the submarine at the time of her sinking. We want to make sure that his name and other information we can find about him is displayed as part of our overall display of U1302.

Thank you all for your time.
