<HTML> We can read at \"WOLF\" by Vause:\"As 1944 passed painfully into 1945 and the U-boats sailed and werw sunk, Karl Dönitz slipped perceptibily away from the men in the boats and ever closer to adolf Hitler, placating him and bolstering him with cheerful reports of U-boats successes and optimistic predicitions about the future. as he did so, Hitler came to rely more and more on teh upright, loyal,and always reliable commander in chief of his navy, and less and less on the gloomy and dissipated leaders of his armies, his air force and his SS. By the time Dönitz observed his second anniversary as the most powerful man in the Kriegsmarine, he had become perhaps the most powerful man in the Whwemacht as well, bu it had cost him his integrity, his independence, and his honor, and he now had only the love of his men to carry him through the last bitter months of a dying nation\".
