Description
English: Fritz Schmidt (1906–1982), Holocaust perpetrator who began his World War II career as a guard and driver at the Sonnenstein and Bernburg Euthanasia Centres with the rank of SS-Unterscharführer. Schmidt was transferred to Treblinka extermination camp along with other gassing specialists in 1942. While in Treblinka, he was in charge of the engine room feeding exhaust to the gas chambers. After the closing of the camp in 1943 he was moved to Trieste where the Risiera di San Sabba killing centre was being set up. In December 1949 he was put on trial and sentenced to nine years in prison (possibly amnestied). He lived in West Germany until his death in 1982.
