Description
Français : Naufragés
English: "Crew members of the U.S.S. Spencer giving coffee and cigarettes to German prisoners on the quarter deck. John Tumas, R.M. 3/c, Boston, Mass. is pouring coffee."; 17 April 1943; Photo No. 1570; photo by Jack January, USCGR.

German survivors on board Spencer, from left to right: Matrosenobergefreiter Max Klinger (facing to his right--face is barely visible); Maschinenobergefreiter Werner Bickel (with cigarette); Maschinenobergefreiter Walter Schröder; Fähnrich (Ing.) Karl Völker; Matrosengefreiter Jean Bamberg (with upraised arm); and Matrosenobergefreiter Ewald Urbanek. RM3 John Tumas, USCGR, is pouring the coffee. The other Coast Guardsmen are unidentified.

As soon as each survivor was brought aboard, their wet clothing was removed and each was wrapped in a Navy blanket and given coffee, brandy and cigarettes. They were soon fed a hot meal.
