Apparently they had no scruple to use the V2 rockets of von Braun to fly into space ;-)

Actually there were a number of people who opposed using the V-2 rockets or even allowing the rocket team (von Braun, et. al.), into the country. The eventual decision was that the Vengeance weapons were no different in moral principle from other forms of the bombardment of civilian targets. There has not been much controversy when it comes to suppressing the results of Mengele's work -- hardly anyone opposes the surpression.
