Hans-Georg von Friedeburg (15 July 1895 – 23 May 1945) was
a German admiral, the deputy commander of the U-boat Forces of Nazi Germany and
the last Commander-in-Chief of the Kriegsmarine. He was the only representative
of the armed forces to sign the German instruments of surrender both in Reims
on 7 May and in Berlin on 8 May 1945. Generaladmiral von Friedeburg committed
suicide shortly afterwards.
