Goddard saw a V2 after the war and pointed out how it was stolen from his designs. Von Braun said Goddard saved them years of research.
Von Braun is a mixed bag, rockets would have happened about the same way with or without him.

And Goddard wasn’t tainted.

Yes, he was. I cant see without the Nazis we made deals with to move stateside after the war, we would have beaten the Russkies.
