After World War II, the United States launched Operation Paperclip in 1945, secretly recruiting over 1,600 Nazi scientists, including Wernher von Braun, who had used slave labor to build Hitler's rockets; these scientists were given new identities and became key figures in NASA's development, including the rockets that eventually put Americans on the moon, while their wartime atrocities remained classified for decades.

America Secretly Hired 1600 Nazi War Criminals for NASAAdded:
Did you know that America secretly hired Nazi war criminals to build our space program? In 1945, as World War II ended, the US launched Operation Paperclip.
They smuggled over 1,600 Nazi scientists into America, no questions asked.
Wernher von Braun had used 20,000 slave laborers to build Hitler's rockets. Most died from starvation and beatings. The US gave him a new identity and made him the father of NASA. While Jewish families searched for missing relatives, their killers were designing the rockets that put Americans on the moon. The program stayed classified for decades.
