Wener Brückner is often listed as being part of Crew 34. He was possibly someone elevated from the enlisted ranks to officer status during the war, but he did not belong to Crew 34. He may have been belatedly attached to the Crew for mere administrative purposes by the Navys personnel office, but he did neither share the common training experience of the Crews regular members nor did he participate in any Crew events, such as reunions after the war (Rust, 2009).
