[edit]

I set up this article not in order to duplicate the "Operation Paperclip" article. I rather see it as a contribution to the "brain drain" and "immigration" articles. My long-term aim is that not only a complete list of Paperclip scientists will be available at Wikipedia eventually, but also the names of those German rocket researchers who came to work in the US at other times. -- ViennaUK June 27, 2007 at 00:52.

Added photo of meeting with Wernher von Braun

[edit]

I've added a photo from 1961 of von Braun meeting with his top associates, most of whom are listed in this article but unfortunately still lack individual articles. If this article can be expanded beyond the scope of Paperclip then I would oppose merging the articles. - Dravecky 17:50, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nazi rocket scientist in the United States

[edit]

better title —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.164.198.123 (talk) 15:04, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The photograph trail that I saw was that this person was one of those young people who liked to make model rockets and never grew out of this. The fact that the United States was the first to land on the moon actually seems to have happened in spite of the fact that we put these great minds on a chemical waste dump and graciously built a pond there for them to swim in. Name calling to me is a dull mind attempting to assess a world that deserves a closer look. -- self-titled line-nazi --> carol (talk) 01:34, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

[edit]

I will merge this to Operation Paperclip if there are no objections. Eusebeus (talk) 00:11, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not a good idea. --Fmrauch (talk) 00:17, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Where is the article on these folks?

[edit]

There is plenty of material for an article on the Germans who came to Huntsville as a group - see, for example [1], wherein they were somewhat disappointed to find that Huntsvillians weren't all so hillbilly as they had imagined. Innumerable references make generalizations about the group, and that would be helpful in understanding the character and mentality. Alas, this is a list, and an article would be of quite different character. -- ke4roh (talk) 00:27, 28 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

An article would be better, because Paperclip is only a part of the story, too. --Fmrauch (talk) 13:19, 1 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
