Hello
I am wondering if there is anywhere I can get information on the U31 german crew that were picked up by HMS Royal Antelope on 2 Nov 1940.
We have a close family relative serving on the Antelope who was given certain items of personal affects from a German Sailor who we believe they picked up from the stricken uboat. We would love to trace this german sailor and return the items to his family if at all possible.
It is documented that there were 2 killed, 44 rescued (taken as prisoners of war) and 2 of the 44 died in subsequent escape attempts.
I don't really know where to start with this search, so any pointers would be very helpful.
