Wolfgang Schmidt was a commander of a concentration camp in Poland in World War II.
History
Origins
As an officer in the Nazi's elite SS corps, Schmidt served as commandant of the Schlasa concentration camp in Poland from March 1944, until the camp's liberation by the Soviets in May 1945.

When Germany lost the war he later met a children's book author, Elizabeth Lewis an American woman. Out of their marriage came a single child Christopher whom they raised in Austria until 1955, with the unveiling of documents seized by the Soviet Union from Germany at the end of World War II. Within days of the Russians'unveiling of his Nazi past, and with the knowledge that his arrest was imminent, Schmidt committed suicide in the bedroom of his country estate on Christopher's fifth birthday.

Whatever the reason Wolfgang hasn't appeared to haunt Christopher for a long time causing him to appear more sane and collected. But a son could never forget his father...
