He did not made it back to Germany. He died unfortunately october 1945 in the revolts of dutch-india.

Not a usual picture from the Emden crew. Wish you all a merry christmas!

Martin, his Name was Wilhelm (Willi) Schlummer and his rank in that time of the second cruise was since 01.04.1940 Obersteuermann and since 01.01.1942 Leutnant z.S. (Kr.O.). Would be great if you could find out something. Cheers, fitzceraldo

Yes.

Thank you, Martin. I would be very interested if you have pictures or informations about the second travel of the Thor, because my granduncle was on board there.
