I think it was Willie Brandt but I'm not sure. Research to follow. :p Okay, according to http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/5663/Konrad-Adenauer , it was Konrad Adenauer. Per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konrad_Adenauer , "Although his political career spanned sixty years, beginning as early as 1906, he is most noted for his role as the first Chancellor of West Germany from 1949–1963 and chairman of the Christian Democratic Union from 1950 to 1966. He was the oldest chancellor ever to serve Germany, leaving at the age of eighty-seven."

Konrad Adenauer http://everything2.com/title/west%2520germany Konrad Adenauer became the first Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany). He held power for the next fourteen years and during that time played an important role in restoring good relations with France and the United States. However, he refused to recognize the legal existence of the German Democratic Republic. http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/2WWwestGermany.htm
