About
SS-Unterscharführer Fritz Schmidt (1906–1982) born in Eibau, Germany, was a Holocaust perpetrator who began his World War II career as a guard and driver at the Sonnenstein Euthanasia Centre and at the Bernburg Euthanasia Centre in 1940–41 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 headquarters of the Operational Zone of the Adriatic Littoral where the Risiera di San Sabba killing centre was being set up. After the war he was arrested by the Allies in Saxony and questioned. 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.
