Hartmuth Baldamus was born in Dresden on 10 August 1891, and served during the Great War initially with Feldflieger Abteilung 20 (Field Flyer Detachment 20) from 29 March 1915, flying two-seater reconnaissance airplanes. Commissioned Leutnant on 20 September 1915, he scored his first aerial victory on 29 July 1916, with his fifth confirmed victory arriving on 29 July 1916. Unusually, having become an ‘Ace’ before being assigned to a Fighter Squadron, he was posted to Jagdstaffel 5 (Fighter Squadron 5) on 27 August 1916, flying fighters from this date, and then transferred to Jagdstaffel 9 in November 1916. By the end of the year he had increased his tally to 9 victories, and on 8 January 1917 was awarded the Knight’s Cross with Swords of the Royal Hohenzollern House Order. Baldamus recorded his 17th victory on 12 April 1917. Two days later, on 14 April, he was involved in a mid-air collision with a French Nieuport 17. Both planes crashed to the ground near Sainte-Marie-à-Py, resulting in Baldamus’ death, in what was ultimately his 18th victory.
