On April 30 German emis
sary appeared in Stockholm to
ay that Field Marshal Busch,
commanding in the north and
General Lindemann, command
ing in Denmark, were ready to
turrender as quickly as the Al
lied advance reached the Baltic
We were told that the Ger
mans would refuse to surrender
to the Russians but that, once the
Western Allies had arrived at
Lubeck and so cut off the forces
In that region from the arrival
of fanatical SS formations from
central Germany, they would im
mediately surrender to us.
Montgomery's forces arrived
In Lubeck May 3. By then
however, a great change in the
governmental structure of Ger
many had taken place.
Hitler had committed suicide
and the tattered mantle of his
authority had fallen to Admiral
Doenitz.
The admiral directed that all
his armies everywhere should
surrender to the Western Allies
Thousands of dejected German
soldiers began entering our lines.
On May 3 Admiral Frledburg
who was the new head of the
German Navy, came to Montgo
mery s headquarters.
He was accompanied by a staff
officer of Field Marshal Busch
They stated that their purpose
was to surrender three of their
armies which had been fighting
the Russians and they asked au
thority to pass refugees through
our lines. Their sole desire was
to avoid surrender to the Rus
sians.
Montgomery promptly refus
ed to discuss a surrender on these
terms and sent the German emis
saries back to Field Marshal
Keitel, the chief of the German
high command.
1 had already told Montgo
mery to accept the military sur
render of all forces In his allot
ted zone of operations. Such a
capitulation would be a tactical
affair and the responsibility of
the commander on the spot.
Consequently, when Admiral
Frledebcrgr eturned to Montgo
mery's headquarters on May 4
with a proposal to surrender all
German forces in northwest Ger
many, including those in Hol
land and Denmark, Montgomery
Instantly accepted.
The necessary documents were
signed that day and became ef
fective the following morning.
When Devers and Montgo
mery received these great sur
renders they made no commit
ments of any kind that could em
harass or limit our governments
In future decision regarding Ger
many; they were purely military
In character, nothing else.
On May 3 a representative of
Doenitz arrived In my headquar
ters. We had received notice
of his coming the day before. At
the same time we were Informed
that the German government
had ordered all of its U-Boats to
return to port.
I at once passed all this infor
mation to the Russian high com
mand and asked them to desig
nate a Red Army officer to come
to my headquarters as the Rus
sian representative in any nego
tiations that Doenitz might pro
pose. I informed them that I
would accept no surrender that
did not involve simultaneous
capitulation everywhere.
The Russian high command
designated Major General Ivan
Suslaparov.
Field Marshal von Kessrlring.
commanding the German forces
on the Western front, also sent
me a message, asking permission
to send a plenipotentiary to ar
range terms of capitulation
Since Von Kessrlring had au
thority only in the west. I re
plied that I would enter Into no
negotiations that did not involve
all German forces everywhere.
...
When Admiral Friedrburg ar
rived at Reims on May 5, he
stated that he wished to clear up
a number of points.
On our side negotiations were
conducted by my chief of staff.
General Smith. The latter told
Friedeburg there was no point
In discussing anything, that our
purpose was merely to accept
111
from t'age 4)
an unconditional and total tur
render. Friedeburg protested that he
had no power to sign any men
document. He was given per
mission to transmit a message to
Doenitz, and received a reply
that General Jodl was on his way
to our headquarters to assist him
in negotiations.
To us, it semed clear that the
Germans were playing for time
so that they could transfer be
hind our lines the largest pos
sible number of German soldiers
still in the field.
I told General Smith to in
form Jodl that unless they In
stantly ceased all pretense and
delay I would close the entire
Allied front and would, by force,
prevent any more German refu
gees from entering our lines.
I would brook no further delay
in the matter.
Finally Jodl and Friedeburg
drafted a cable to Doenitz re
questing authority to make i
complete surrender, to become
effective forty-eight hours after
signing. Had I agreed to this
procedure the Germans could
have found one excuse or anoth
er for postponing the signature
and so securing additional de
lay.
Through Smith, I informed
them that the surrender would
become effective forty-eight
hours from midnight of that day:
otherwise my threat to seal the
western front would be carried
out at once.
Doenitz at last saw the in
evitability of compliance
and the surrender instru
ment wan signed by Jodl at
two forty-one in the morn
ing of May 1. All hostilties
were to cease at midnight,
May 8.
After the necessary papers had
been signed by Field Marshal
Jodl and General Smith, with
the French and Russian repre
sentatives signing as witnesses,
Field Marshal Jodl was brought
to my office.
I as'ked him through the in
terpreter if he thoroughly un
derstood all provisions of the
document he had signed.
He answered, "Ja."
I said, "You will, officially
and personally, be held respon
sible if the terms of this surren
der are violated, including Its
provisions for German com
manders to appear in Berlin at
the moment set by the Russian
high command to accomplish
formal surrender to that govern
ment. That is all."
He saluted and left. .
