Return to Peenemunde Germany - September 1991

[@mjinnh2112]

Geez, you'd think 1942 in Peenemunde was just a fun day in peace time. Unbelievable the failure to mention in whose service and for what goals all this was destined for. Appalling.

If the RAF bombing raid hit a concentration camp, it is a little dishonest to claim not knowing what was going on. What you could have done in this situation is a different matter.

Interesting footage, but entire video promotes the mythology that rocket scientists in Peenemünde were innocent dreamers of Space rather than knowing participants in Nazi crimes like slave labor. It also pushes a deliberate misinterpretation of von Braun’s March 1944 Gestapo arrest as being about his war-weapon hesitancy, rather than part of a power play by the SS to take over the missile program. Sigh. What should we expect? Huntsville AL still has a civic center named after von Braun, so this video is part of that same mindset, firmly convinced that Wernher’s anti-communist patriotism and moon landing achievements fully rehabilitate him from his Nazi past…

A great documentary ruined by what appears to be a stereotypically affected, presenter. Irony of the story; Hess, probably killed no one. Tried to arrange a peace with Britain. Locked up in Spandau until he committed suicide there decades later. Von Braun, killed around 9000 people : soldiers, civilians, men, women and children with his indiscriminate V2 rockets born of Hitler's "total war" philosophy. Probably 12000 forced labourers also died building his projects. Lauded pioneer of the US Space program. The politics of expediency.

That's what I call a REAL bloody irony, fella. Same as told us Rousseau, and later recalled Orwell: We human dipshits TEND TO forget that commies & nazis were on the top strictly via democracy.....

He was a genius🫡 Science requires victims…
