    Wolfgang Fischer (11 December 1888 – 1 February 1943) was an officer in the Wehrmacht of Nazi Germany during World War II. He was killed on 1 February 1943 near Mareth in Tunisia when his staff car drove into a poorly marked Italian minefield and hit a land mine. He lost his left arm and both of his legs in the blast. He bled to death while writing a farewell letter to his wife.

    Career

    Fischer began his career by joining the 154th (5th Lower Silesian) Infantry Regiment with the rank of Fahnenjunker on 18 March 1910.

    When World War I broke out, he was transferred to the 7th Landwehr Infantry Regiment as a platoon leader. He was later named adjutant of the 3rd Landwehr Division in late 1915 and held the same rank in the 22nd Landwehr Infantry Brigade in the fall of 1917, serving in the Western Front. He became a captain at the end of the war and joined a battalion of volunteers during the German Revolution of 1918–19.

    He joined the Reichswehr in 1919 and was sent to the 3rd (Prussian) Infantry Regiment at Deutsch Eylau (now Iława, Poland) from 1920–29. Between 1929 and 1934, he was a company commander in the 6th Infantry Regiment at Lübeck. He assumed command of the 69th Infantry Regiment on 4 February 1938 during the 1938 Blomberg–Fritsch purge.[1]

    As an Oberst in 1939, he commanded the 69th Infantry Regiment from 1938–39 and the 10th Rifle Brigade of the 10th Panzer Division from late 1939–41. He was promoted to Generalmajor on 1 August 1942 a day before he took command of the 10th Panzer Division and to Generalleutnant on 1 November 1942.

    He was posthumously promoted to the rank of General.[2]
