<HTML>Actually, got to disagree with this one. Hitler meddled disastrously in KM affairs. Particularly with his paranoia over the loss of capital ships thereby ordering them not to engage if there was any chance of damage. Tying the hands of professional ship commanders isn\'t a good idea.
Also his paranoia (there it is again...) over an Allied landing in Norway diverted vital U-boats out of the Atlantic battle.
