Hi All,

I need photos (scans or cellphone camera copies are fine or even the name of a book or website that has a photo of any of them) of the following men that served on U-126 (the officer's crew affiliations would be of help too - for example Ruland was Crew 35):

Aboard U-126 when she was sunk with all hands:

Oberleutnant zur See Johannes Graf von Ballestrem

Leutnant zur See Emil Stefan Bacher

Stabsobersteuermann Herbert Petri


Others:

Oberleutnant (Ing) Friedrich (Fritz) Ruland (Crew 35). He also served on U-4, U-5, & U-34.

Marinestabsarzt (MStA) Dr. Emil Messmer (U-126 & U-541) He was an Marineoberassistenzarzt while on U-126).

Oberleutnant zur See Friis

Oberleutnant (Ing) (on U-534, Obermaschinist on U-126) Ludwig Schlumberger. He also served on U-25, U-30, & U-34.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Please reply to this post or reply by the Private Message facility of this forum for registered users.

Regards,

Ken Dunn
