Of course; they were eager to get him and his V1/V2 team before the Russians did. One more example of war tech transferred elsewhere.

no...just pretty fucking smart..  Von Braun was only a Nazi because he had to be. He was a BRILLIANT scientist. He really didn't want to know what his rockets were being used for. His dream from boyhood was to build a rocket to the moon and beyond.

this is true this was my final report to graduate college and if anyone calls him a Nazi they should look at Ferdinand Porsche and pull their head out their ass

Von Braun was only a Nazi because he had to be. He was a BRILLIANT scientist. Von Braun was only a Nazi because he had to be. This second quote is especially baseless, he's just guessing. There is *no* way to know for sure, and there is contradictory evidence. What I want to know is why you rocket scientists haven't figured out that 99% of Germans claimed to be anti-nazi after the war, which makes the denials farcical most of the time, except to suckers. Elisabeth Schwarzkopf who died last week, and Leni Reifenstahl who passed a couple of summers ago also claimed that they were only doing it for political expediency even with evidence that they were fanatics.

Pumpster, my uncle worked in the missile propulsion field and he knew Werner Von Braun as a very good friend and a house guest. It isn't guessing on my part.

Of course he was.  I don't give a damn if you believe it. Audie Murphy was a friend of my uncles also. I knew both as a kid loser.

Obviously you DO give a damn that your credibility = 0, to have to say it.

My uncle worked in both the aerospace and arms industry. He still runs a company at 85 years old that makes blades for turbine jet engines. He holds several patents. It sure doesn't make me special or rich or anything like that. I just thought I would point out I knew both Von Braun and Audie Murphy when I was a kid. Back then I didn't realize they were famous.

i think pumpster's just envious b/c you got to know people who made history . . . i don't think the canadian space program really got off the ground . . . so he didn't have that chance.
