Wild Bill Donovan wrote a handwritten note...“should we pursue this?” ...
This is not my opinion, this is sourced as “secret and classified” by the OSS [Wild Bill] and not released until 1993 by the CIA.
You offer a question, but no opinion. Wild Bill had an absolute duty to confer with his principle, but it is worth noting he asked, "Should we pursue this?", he did not say, "We should pursue this" or even, "this has merit".
Likely rejected again as before due to Roosevelt.
Roosevelt was dead, it was most likely rejected by a much healthier, alert and well-informed Truman.

Seriously? 😂
Roosevelt died in April ‘45 Wild Bill wrote tha =t note in May ‘45. Truman probably hadn’t even moved his things into the WH yet, he was going off FDRs plans.
