OK, let me rephrase the comment. Werner Von Braun was the father of the German rocket program during WWII at Peenamunde, the birthplace of modern rocketry, including the V1 and V2 rocket programs, you know the ones Hitler used against Great Britain. Does that make Von Braun a Nazi? You decide. You say he got an opportunity after the war. I say he got an offer he couldn't refuse.
It's European invasion
Gryphon, Ypsilon, Lansche, Kharma, Focal, Jadis, Mastersound, Swiss electronics etc. At the highest or close to it level they are overtaking big time. Yes, there are still competitive American brands, but it appears that Europeans are gaining more and more ground. With the help of Japanese - TechDas, Technics, Wavac, Kondo Japan, others.

Let's not mince words about von Braun. He was an officer in the SS and his weapons program used large amounts of slave labor. He was a Nazi. The US welcomed him and his team because we did not want the Russians to capture them. And yes, von Braun, like every other SS officer, definitely did not want to be captured by the Russians. I wonder why? Von Braun was the father of the US rocket program, but a far more interesting person is the woman who thwarted his work at Peenemunde. |
