A possible namesake is Albert Schneider, an army captain who received the Knight's Cross on 23 December 1942 as commander of Feld-Ausbau-Bataillon 178, a construction and fortification battalion. The name is very common, and nothing links the game soldier to him beyond the name, so this is only a tentative match.
This match is not confirmed, the name may be a coincidence.
