Seeoffizierslaufbahn regiment.

In the final months of the war, Puttkamer graduated at the Naval Academy Mürwik in a navigation course.
He then took leave and joined the Freikorps.
In September 1920 Puttkamer returned to the Naval Academy.
He was commissioned as an officer in 1923.
In September 1926, Puttkamer became commander of the torpedo boat GERMAN TORPEDO BOAT Albatros under Karl Dönitz, a position he held until October 1930, where he was promoted to lieutenant-commander of the torpedo boat SMS Adler.
In 1933 graduated as a naval liaison officer from the Mürwik Naval Academy.

After the war began, he returned to the role of naval adjutant to Hitler.
Later in September 1943 he was promoted to Konteradmiral.
Puttkamer was injured on 20 July 1944 when the bomb exploded during the 20 July plot attempt to kill Hitler and was awarded the 20 July Wound Badge.
At the end of January 1945 a Pomeranian Volkssturm battalion was commanded by Baron von Puttkamer.
This force was commanded by officers in their World War I uniforms and old service pistols with farmers without weapons, only armed with their Volkssturm armbands.
After the unit was unable to reach the city of Schneidemuhl to obtain arms and when their train took Soviet tank fire, Puttkamer returned his men to their village and determined that they were not going to throw lives away and "put away the old uniform, which become dishonored 'under these Hitlers and Himmlers'".
On 20 April 1945, Hitler told his staff: "The situation during the last few days has changed to such an extent that I am forced to reduce my staff."
