Adolf Louis Theodor Richard von Schubert (19 April 1850 – 13 May 1933) served as a German army commander during the First World War.

Upon mobilization in August 1914, Schubert was recalled from retirement and given command of the German XIV Reserve Corps.

Hermann von François refused, and dispatched a telegram to the OHL stating Schubert was badly advised.

The telegram impressed the Kaiser so much that he immediately relieved Schubert and gave François the command of the 8th Army.

[1] Schubert was sent back to the Western Front, where he replaced Adolph von Carlowitz at the head of the XXVII Reserve Corps during the First Battle of Ypres.
