II</a>. </p><p>When World War II broke out in September 1939, Hilpert became chief of the staff of <i>Armeeabteilung A</i> on 9 September 1939 under the command of <a href="/wiki/Kurt_von_Hammerstein-Equord" title="Kurt von Hammerstein-Equord">Kurt von Hammerstein-Equord</a>, who was tasked with securing the western border with Belgium and the Netherlands. After its dissolution on 3 October, the staff was used to form the South Border Section Command in Kraków, where Hilpert remained active, before taking up the post of chief of staff of the <a href="/wiki/1st_Army_(Wehrmacht)" title="1st Army (Wehrmacht)">1st Army</a> under <a href="/wiki/Erwin_von_Witzleben" title="Erwin von Witzleben">Erwin von Witzleben</a> on 5 February 1940. With this association, Hilpert took part in the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_France" title="Battle of France">Battle of France</a> and after its successful completion on 1 October 1940, he was promoted to lieutenant general. Since Erwin von Witzleben, who had been appointed <a href="/wiki/Generalfeldmarschall" title="Generalfeldmarschall">Generalfeldmarschall</a>, now took over <a href="/wiki/Army_Group_D" title="Army Group D">Army Group D</a> (from April 1941 also <a href="/wiki/Oberbefehlshaber_West" class="mw-redirect" title="Oberbefehlshaber West">Oberbefehlshaber West</a>) in occupied France on 26 October 1940, Hilpert also succeeded him as the new Chief of Staff of the Army Group. Hilpert remained in this position for the next year and a half. After the daring British <a href="/wiki/St_Nazaire_Raid" title="St Nazaire Raid">St Nazaire Raid</a> revealed the poor state of western defences in March 1942, Hilpert was removed from this post and transferred to the <a href="/wiki/Fuhrerreserve" class="mw-redirect" title="Fuhrerreserve">Fuhrerreserve</a>. </p><p>On 26 June 1942, Hilpert became acting commander of the <a href="/wiki/LIX_Army_Corps_(Wehrmacht)" title="LIX Army Corps (Wehrmacht)">LIX Army Corps</a> and in July took over the command of <a href="/wiki/XXIII_Army_Corps_(Wehrmacht)" title="XXIII Army Corps (Wehrmacht)">XXIII Corps</a> with which he fought against the Soviet <a href="/wiki/Operation_Mars" title="Operation Mars">Operation Mars</a>. On 20 January 1943, he became Commanding General of <a href="/wiki/LIV_Army_Corps_(Wehrmacht)" class="mw-redirect" title="LIV Army Corps (Wehrmacht)">LIV Corps</a>, which was deployed under the 18th Army of Army Group North before Leningrad and was involved in heavy defensive battles during <a href="/wiki/Operation_Iskra" title="Operation Iskra">Operation Iskra</a>. In the following summer 1943 too, he proved himself in further defensive battles in the <a href="/wiki/Fifth_Sinyavino_Offensive" class="mw-redirect" title="Fifth Sinyavino Offensive">Fifth Sinyavino Offensive</a>, for which he was later awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross on 22 August 1943. </p><p>From 31 October 1943, he briefly commanded the <a href="/wiki/XXVI_Army_Corps_(Wehrmacht)" title="XXVI Army Corps (Wehrmacht)">XXVI Army Corps</a> off Leningrad before taking over <a href="/wiki/I_Army_Corps_(Wehrmacht)" title="I Army Corps (Wehrmacht)">I Army Corps</a> in the area of the 16th Army fighting in the Newel area on 1 January 1944. As part of the Soviet winter offensive (<a href="/wiki/Leningrad%E2%80%93Novgorod_Offensive" class="mw-redirect" title="Leningrad–Novgorod Offensive">Leningrad–Novgorod Offensive</a>), Hilpert's troops got into heavy fighting, and Hilpert himself fell out. In July 1944, during the battles that followed the start of the Soviet summer offensive <a href="/wiki/Operation_Bagration" title="Operation Bagration">Operation Bagration</a>, Hilpert managed to break out of the <a href="/wiki/Polotsk" title="Polotsk">Polotsk</a> Fortress in heavy battles. For this achievement he received the oak leaves for the Knight's Cross on 8 August 1944. </p><p>During the last stages of <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>, Hilpert commanded the German troops which had been surrounded by the <a href="/wiki/Red_Army" title="Red Army">Red Army</a> in the <a href="/wiki/Courland_Pocket" title="Courland Pocket">Courland Pocket</a>. On 7 May 1945, <a href="/wiki/Karl_D%C3%B6nitz" title="Karl Dönitz">Karl Dönitz</a>, in his capacity as head of state, ordered Hilpert to surrender <a href="/wiki/Army_Group_Courland" title="Army Group Courland">Army Group Courland</a>. Hilpert was the army group's last commander-in-chief. Hilpert surrendered himself, his personal staff, and three divisions of the <a href="/wiki/German_XXXVIII_Corps" class="mw-redirect" title="German XXXVIII Corps">XXXVIII Corps</a> to Soviet Marshal <a href="/wiki/Leonid_Govorov" title="Leonid Govorov">Leonid Govorov</a>.
