Eugen Siegfried Erich Ritter von Schobert (13 March 1883 – 12 September 1941) was a German general during World War II.

He served primarily in the 1st Bavarian Infantry Regiment "König" and underwent pilot training in 1911.

[2] This was Bavaria's highest military honor, comparable to the Prussian Pour le Mérite, and conferred a patent of nobility on a recipient who was a commoner.

[Note 1] After World War I, Schobert remained in the Reichswehr and then the Wehrmacht, steadily rising up the ranks.

A German war correspondent, Leo Leixner, wrote Schobert's biography.
