Thank you for posting your question on History Hub!
The Instruments of German Surrender are located in the series titled “Instruments of German Surrender, 5/4/1945-9/17/1947” in the Records of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff (Record Group 218) at the National Archives at College Park, MD. These documents are specially protected and are not served to researchers in the Textual Research Room (Room 2000). However, scans of the Instruments of German Surrender are available in the National Archives Catalog and can be viewed here.
They are also part of “Our documents” online and can be viewed here.
We hope this information is helpful. Best of luck with your research!
