Alwin-Broder Albrecht



"There's Alwin-Broder Albrecht. Now he's serving for the Nazi Union Motor Corps as of today. I think this guy would've tried to stop the Grand Alliance from winning so badly right now. I wonder why?"

Alwin-Broder Albrecht is a German naval officer who was one of Adolf Hitler's adjutants during World War II.

In When the Cold Breeze Blows Away, he is a naval officer serving for the Kriegsmarine of the Nazi Union, and one of Hermann Fegelein's adjutants during World War III.

Before the Nazi Union
He was born in Sankt Peter-Ording in the Province of Schleswig-Holstein. In 1922 he joined the Reichsmarine. On 1 June 1934, he was promoted to Kapitänleutnant. Then on 1 November 1937, he was promoted to the rank of Korvettenkapitän. When Hitler's liaison officer to the navy, Karl-Jesko von Puttkamer was transferred to active service on 19 June 1938, Albrecht took over that position. However, on 30 June 1939, the Commander of the Navy Grossadmiral Erich Raeder wanted him transferred to Tokyo as a military attaché or kicked out of the navy completely after it was discovered that Albrecht had married a woman "with a past" in early 1939. Hitler was against it; he had an argument with Raeder over the matter. On 1 July 1939, Hitler appointed Albrecht a NSKK-Oberführer and made him one of his adjutants. Hitler went on to meet Albrecht's wife and liked her. Under Reichsleiter Philipp Bouhler, Albrecht remained on Hitler's staff and worked in the Reich Chancellery in Berlin.
