Q:What key details about kurt weyher can be extracted from the following bio? Bio: kurt august viktor weyher -lrb- 30 august 1901 -- 17 december 1991 -rrb- was a konteradmiral of the '' kriegsmarine '' who , during world war ii , commanded a merchant raider . material on the command of the raider '' orion '' was published online at -lsb- http://www.bismarck-class.dk/hilfskreuzer/orion.html] . weyher was heavily decorated during his active lifetime and progressed to konteradmiral -lrb- equivalent to rear admiral -rrb- during the war , so he seems to have been an effective officer at the least . although it was not mentioned in his book '' the black raider '' , it seems that weyher was a non-trivial painter ; in a feature article author keith gordon tells that on the voyage of the '' orion '' weyher did about 30 paintings on subjects connected with the ship 's activities . the one painting illustrated seems to have had narrative merit and to have represented the topographic background recognisably .
