I looked up the Nazi German guy you posted about last night, the one that eventually worked for NASA. just Wikipedia. It read that when the Naxis were apparently losing, he went to great lengths to be where he would be apprehended by the Americans. He figured the knowledge would be better off with them.

“On the motives behind this conversion, Michael J. Neufeld is of the opinion that he turned to religion “to pacify his own conscience”,[108] and University of Southampton scholar Kendrick Oliver said that von Braun was presumably moved “by a desire to find a new direction for his life after the moral chaos of his service for the Third Reich”.[109] Having “concluded one bad bargain with the Devil, perhaps now he felt a need to have God securely at his side”.[110]

At a Gideons conference in 2004, W. Albert Wilson, a former pilot and NASA employee, claimed that he had talked with von Braun about the Christian faith while von Braun was working for NASA, and believed that conversation had been instrumental in von Braun’s conversion.[111]

Later in life, he joined an Episcopal congregation,[107] and became increasingly religious.[112] He publicly spoke and wrote about the complementarity of science and religion, the afterlife of the soul, and his belief in God.[113][114] He stated, “Through science man strives to learn more of the mysteries of creation. Through religion he seeks to know the Creator.”[115] He was interviewed by the Assemblies of God pastor C. M. Ward and stated that “The farther we probe into space, the greater my faith.”[116] In addition, he met privately with evangelist Billy Graham and with the civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr.[117]”

Excellent work!! Rusty your heart would have broken as mine to hear the stories of Germans writing in to https://t.me/fufmedia..he has disappeared. Said he needed a rest from todays mess.(in so many words)

This was my go to German site.

*************People said their young childhood friends would disappear. It wasn’t unusual. Now they are having nightmares thinking they were kidnapped for scientific experiments/?. The horrors of Germany are breaking their souls! Prayers were posted almost daily. Hundreds of bodies would be found when people dig for buildings. ALL was covered up and NEVER discussed. Now they are discussing.

Videos were posted from all over Germany and countries around of military on the move. Tanks in towns even.
