Merchant Navy Records

[DAVID HAWKES]

Can anybody please tell me where I can check Merchant Navy Records.I am
looking for the record of a Karl August Sonnenschein who I am told served in
the Merchant Navy during WW 2 and was purported to have been one of the
prisoners released from the Altmark by HMS Cossack.
Any help would be appreciated
