As relates to von Braun, I’m not familiar with his being a war criminal. I apologize if I may have missed it, but one has to violate an International Law to be one of those, and rocket engineering doesn’t quality, nor does being a WWII Nazi or ranked into SS itself, unless one commits an International War Crime. I met the man in mid-50's. Fascinating - totally immersed in visions of space flight like a kid. All enthusiasm. I remember him describing a future swimming pool in space as a water ball shape with swimming on the inside of the hollow water ball.

I suggest reading one or more of the heavily documented disclosure books by Col. Fletcher Prouty. He was one of the pilots who flew out German scientists to the US, was present at some of the Big Four conferences of WWII, and covers in details how the US operated and what roles our intelligence played from early WWII , including establishment of the CIA and how it went off the rails, Vietnam, shipment of US weapons to North Vietnam, Bay of Pigs, overthrows, false and black flags, etc., up until President Kennedy’s assassination, about which he has a lot to say.

Col. L. Fletcher Prouty, served under three presidents, was the Pentagon liaison between the Joint Chiefs and the CIA. He established the Office of Special Operations (Military Support of the Clandestine Operations of the CIA), and was Chief of Special Operations for Joint Chiefs 62-63. In 1963 wrote the formal directive on covert ops used by Joint Chiefs for all military services. In 1964 retired as chief of Special Operations.
