"The natural state of people is to be sheep. But this is a wolf’s world, and we are here so that nobody forgets it."
―Wilhelm Schmidt, 1942.[src]

Wilhelm Schmidt (born 1907) was a German SS Obersturmführer who was based in German-occupied France during World War II.

By 1942, Schmidt was one of the newly-joined members of the Templar Order and had organized a private party at the Folies Bergère in Paris, attended by guests that included soldiers, officers and local celebrities. Within the theater, Schmidt used an area as his office where he kept important and sensitive documents, including one on fellow Templar Heinz Müller. He also installed an explosive booby trap in the drawer in the event someone would attempt to steal the documents.[1]

Sure enough, the party was infiltrated by two members of the Assassin Brotherhood, Major Gallagher and The Ambassador, who managed to retrieve the Templar intel with the help of French dancer Josephine Baker and saboteur Nancy Wake.[1]
