Wernher Von Braun - The Nazi Defector

Wenher was born in Germany in 1912 and after receiving his education he would eventually move into rocket science where he would become one of the leading experts in rocket technology.
However when the movement of Nazism started to pick up, he found that the easiest way for him to continue his work was to join Hitler's military. With the help of Jewish slave labor, under the threat of death, Wenher was able to make even further discoveries with rocket science.

When Nazi Germany fell, Wernher surrendered to the US who couldn't deny his intelligence in the field of science and made him work for the US instead.
