For General Eberhard Zorn, one such event took place today: This afternoon, Zorn handed over command of the German Navy from Vice Admiral Andreas Krause to Vice Admiral Kay-Achim Sch\u00f6nbach. This marks the end of an exceptionally long time at the helm of the Navy for Krause. For six and a half years, he was able to steer the fortunes of Germany's smallest armed force. During his time in office, he not only initiated the transformation of the Bundeswehr, but also commissioned the first Class 125 frigates. The former submarine commander and deputy commander of NATO's allied naval forces now has time to spend with his family and pursue his hobbies in retirement.<br \/>\nAdmiral Krause and his family had the navy to themselves once again as a farewell gift: on board the <span style=\"font-variant: small-caps;\">Marine 1<\/span>Krause enjoyed a short trip through the capital's canals with his family on board the navy's VIP launch.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9355\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9355\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9355\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-03-24-Familie-an-Bord-mfo.jpg\" alt=\"Farewell on board the Marine 1 with the family\" width=\"1500\" height=\"743\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-03-24-Familie-an-Bord-mfo.jpg 1500w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-03-24-Familie-an-Bord-mfo-300x149.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-03-24-Familie-an-Bord-mfo-1024x507.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-03-24-Familie-an-Bord-mfo-768x380.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-03-24-Familie-an-Bord-mfo-1080x535.jpg 1080w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-03-24-Familie-an-Bord-mfo-750x372.jpg 750w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-03-24-Familie-an-Bord-mfo-1140x565.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9355\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Farewell on board the Marine 1 with the family<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9348\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9348\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-9348 size-medium\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Vizeadmiral-Schoenbach-mfo-300x282.jpg\" alt=\"The new man: Vice Admiral Kay-Achim Sch\u00f6nbach\" width=\"300\" height=\"282\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Vizeadmiral-Schoenbach-mfo-300x282.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Vizeadmiral-Schoenbach-mfo-1024x963.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Vizeadmiral-Schoenbach-mfo-768x722.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Vizeadmiral-Schoenbach-mfo-1080x1015.jpg 1080w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Vizeadmiral-Schoenbach-mfo-750x705.jpg 750w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Vizeadmiral-Schoenbach-mfo-1140x1072.jpg 1140w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Vizeadmiral-Schoenbach-mfo.jpg 1535w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9348\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The new man: Vice Admiral Kay-Achim Sch\u00f6nbach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Vice Admiral Sch\u00f6nbach joined the navy in 1984 and, following his studies and officer training, was an exchange officer in the Netherlands, among other things.
