If you haven't already got it, while you wait for his records, here's the history of his vessel.
http://www.naval-history.net/xGM-Chrono-11US-HMS_Stanley.htm which ends with the sinking on 19 Dec 41.

It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,
