How to unlock the Ultimate Spy achievement in Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus - Definitive Guide
The successful run starts at about 22:00 into the video, but I recommend watching all of the runs to get a better idea of the strategy I was going for.
If you die, don't forget to change difficulty back to Mein Leben before you start.
Some Tips:
1. Like the other two DLC, to get the Mein Leben difficulty achievement you only have to finish the third volume.
2. PRACTICE!!! Go through the level in I Am Death Incarnate at least once. Being able to figure out where enemies spawn and how they act and move, plus having saves makes this much more tolerable.
3. Agent Silent Death has an ability essentially the same as the constrictor harness in the main game. You WILL need to take advantage of this ability in this level. You seem to have no time limit on how long you can stay constricted, so up until you blow up the life support for gamma station you can take as much time as you need sneaking around.
4. Don't bother picking up any armor or weapons (other than any pistols and pistol ammo). You will be dead in about two shots even with full armor and the other weapons will alert everyone in the map, which will cause bullets to be forcefully placed into your skull, which is bad.
5. Aim for the head. With the pistol this should always be a one shot kill if you hit them right. You want to save as much ammo as you can because you kinda have to lay into the general to kill him, so extra ammo is good.
6. Ignore the Supersoldaten and Panzerhund, you wont be able to kill them, at least not without dying immediately after.
7. Make absolutely sure you are NOT seen by the Laserhund (The annoying fast dog robot with a laser face). It will ruin your day. It will despawn after you destroy the stations life support, as long as you don't alert the general before or while doing that.
8. Kill as many of the regular guards as possible and if you can, kill the generals dog. They will also ruin your day if you leave them.
9. After killing the general, book it for the exit, and pick up a health pack on the way there (see video for where I grab it).
I kinda messed up my strategy for killing the general at the end but it still managed to work out. My original plan was to kill the dog when he is next to the general, then turn to the right and exit out into the large hallway. Wait for the general to walk in front of you, then aim and lay into him with the pistol. Once hes dead book it for the exit, stopping in the first control room for a health pack.
Hopefully this helps someone get through this since it can be a bit of a pain.
Commander's doggie is priority.
I have also linked the video that i used to practice the start which was very helpful. All credit to the original owner as i do not own that video.
The "Mein leben" difficulty for this DLC is actually available from the get-go. When you boot up "The Diaries of Agent Silent Death," you can toggle the difficulty by tapping until the bar in the lower right-hand side of the screen is maxed out.
On this difficulty, which is actually set to "I am Death Incarnate," you will only have one life. Additionally, you cannot save. This means that if you die during your playthrough, you are sent back to the Main Menu. Fortunately, you are able to pause your game should you need a break.
For high-level tips and strategies involved with this difficulty setting, please refer above to "Expert Spy" for more information.
A successful, uninterrupted playthrough on "Mein leben" should take around half an hour to complete depending on your playstyle. Feel free to utilize the commentary-assisted video walkthrough below, courtesy of KreeperV.

NOTE #1: For an additional video walkthrough, there's also THIS GUIDE by nekov4ego. Thanks for the excellent walkthrough, nekov4ego!
NOTE #2: This Episode works a little differently than "The Adventures of Gunslinger Joe" in that you are not returned to the Main Menu after completing a Volume. Despite this difference, the game will still track which missions you have completed on "Mein leben." For example, once you have completed Volume 1, you can still die on Volume 2 or Volume 3 without needing to redo already-completed Volumes. Do keep in mind, though, that you still cannot shut off your console in between Volumes, as this will wipe progress.
I hope it is useful to someone.
