Bernhard Rogge (4 November 1899 – 29 June 1982) was a Captain () of the German Navy (Kriegsmarine) who, during World War II, commanded a merchant raider. He was awarded a Japanese ornate Samurai sword and the Oak Leaves to the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross for his actions as the commander of the Hilfskreuzer (auxiliary cruiser) Atlantis (Schiff 16). Rogge also was one of the few German officers of flag rank who was not arrested by the Allies after the war. This was due to the way he had exercised his command of Atlantis.
