Wernher, freiherr von braun (1912-1977): a very popular american. Joined the nsdap in 1937 and was in the ss. The date in which he joined it is contested and his reasons for it are also unknown.

He was the chief constructor of the whole weapons program. He was a specialist in rockets (battle of britain in 1940-41). Power was hanging by the threads and it was decided that the german air force could not defeat the british air force. A lot of people died in london due to bombardment in 1944 due to v-1 built for revenge by germans. Launched shortly after successful landing of allies forces in normandy. V2 was the first rocket to reach space and this caused more damage in.
