Captain Paul Just and four other crewmen were picked up by USS Keith and later interned in Boston, Mass. Captain survived the war and died in Germany in 1990. These pieces were taken by a sailor on the USS Keith, names and a brief description were written in ink on one of the pieces. Look this up online, as it is fantastic reading. I'm also including a copy of a picture that I got off the internet of the raft just before capture.
