Did the Kriegsmarine recruit sailors from other Axis countries?

I have recently seen the crew member list for the blockade runner Ramses. Several members of the crew came from Finland, retaining Finnish names not German and I was wondering how such sailors would come to be in the Kriegsmarine.
Does anyone know if there was a policy, official or otherwise, of recruiting or training sailors from other Axis countries in the KM?
