I am trying to find the answer to this as well. I have a photo postcard of the ship with the officers' signatures all over it which was given to my father, who knew them, in Sept 1913. They gave a birthday party for him aboard Scharnhorst in June 1913 (I have his place name card) I want to try and trace any surviving relatives of any of those who signed the card

1914 was the year World War I began, at that time all available Germans were needed back in their homeland. Pre-occupied with their involvement under the dictatorship of Hitler, the Germans were to resist fighting in the locality of the South Pacific against the NZ Expeditionary army acting under British authority.
