In 1928, he started his chess career in Nuremberg, playing at Arbeiterschachklub Nürnberg, then Nürnberger Schachklub Noris.

In 1933, he won in the Franconian championships.
In 1933, he was arrested by Nazis, and spent two years in a Nuremberg prison and three years in the Dachau concentration camp, until 1939.

In October 1942, he was drafted into the Wehrmacht, and sent to the Eastern Front in March 1943.

In March 1945 he was in the Western Front, and after Western Allied invasion of Germany, he had been taken into Allied captivity.
From April to September 1945, he was kept in an American army camp (Lager 2227) in Ostend, Belgium.
After his release on September 2, 1945, he returned to Nuremberg, and next to Bad Blankenburg, then the Soviet occupation zone.
In February 1946, he became a political functionary of KPD and the Socialist Unity Party of Germany (SED) in Sonneberg, Thüringen.
He received a doctorate of pedagogy (1948), and a habilitation in philosophy (1950) from the University of Jena, Thuringia.
