Dig into Operation Paperclip, a secret intelligence program which brought scientists from Nazi Germany to the US after WWII.
--
In May of 1945 the Third Reich was in chaos. Adolf Hitler was dead and German surrender was imminent. But while World War II was almost over, a new war was brewing. And the US was eager to recruit the smartest minds in Germany before the Soviets got the chance- regardless of their affiliation with the Nazis. This became known as Operation Paperclip. Brian Crim digs into the clandestine campaign.

  • This was also the case for Japanese scientists who were part of unit 731, a concentration camp in China that the Japanese used to commit unspeakably depraved human experiments on live civilians. The scientists were offered amnesty by the US, in exchange for their research on biological warfare and medicine, even though these experiments were wildly unscientific and had come at the expense of hundreds of thousands of innocent lives.
