Do admirals die when in command of a ship that is sunk? Donitz has vanished as I had him in command of a sub that was destroyed. I didn't think their command literally meant they were on the damn boat. Or have I run into a bug of some sort?

IIRC, every commander has a chance of being lost if their command is destroyed. That chance is increased if they are out of supply or at sea, and increased even more if at sea on a U-boat.
I just never heard of this. What admiral would ever be in a sub? That makes Donitz trait of "sea wolf" ridiculously useless, because using him in a sub would be stupid and reckless. I thought of it as a command structure, not actually being in the sub. Just as aviation Generals are not actually on the plane.

Indeed, and I have found my admirals die quite often when a fleet is destroyed.
Admirals die if their fleet is on sea and completely sunk.
Land/air leaders never die.
EDIT: Some have historical deaths/retirements scripted in.
