Re: Lt. Werner Schmidt, 1/KG55

Our notes come up with two possibilities, either of which doesn’t quite seem to fit the guy you describe:

SCHMIDT, Werner.
(DOB: 06.07.11).
01.04.42 promo to Hptm.
21.08.43 Hptm., appt Staka 9./KG 55 (to 08.05.45).
19.08.44 Hptm., awarded Ritterkreuz, Staka 9./KG 55.
Credited with 365 combat missions during the war.
† 13.07.97 in Friedrichsdorf/Taunus.


SCHMIDT, Werner-Artur.
(DOB: 01.05.20 in Potsdam).
01.04.42 promo to Oblt.
31.08.43 Oblt., awarded DKG, 7./KG 55.

Good luck!
