I heard of Donitz only after WWI. Among the lieutenants he was considered a very capable naval officer and was generally considered to have a great future ahead of him... My personal impressions substantiated him as a very clear, capable and self-confident personality, with a gift for personal sincerity... It was only after being ordered to the Naval Department as Ia of the Operations Section in April 1939, and especially from the beginning of the war that I have dealt with him more often. After his promotion to Commander in Chief of the Navy on Jan. 31, 1943, I had personal contact with him in my position as Chief of Operations of the Navy Command in connection with daily situation discussions and all other important presentations in other areas in which I had to participate..."
