Leutnant Kurt Wissemann was a World War I flying ace credited with five aerial victories. Born in Elberfeld, Wissemann trained at Jastaschule 1 before being posted to Jasta 3 on 28 May 1917. He claimed 5 victories during 1917, one of which was reputed to be top French ace Georges Guynemer on 11 September. He was killed in action over Westroosbeke, allegedly versus Capt. Rene Fonck but documentary evidence suggests it was more probably either Capt Reginald Hoidge or Capt Geoffrey Hilton Bowman of No. 56 Squadron, RFC .
