Werner bon Braun was high ranking due to his work on rocket engineering, nothing more. He joined the party due to pressure and wanting to keep doing his life’s work.

Just read about him.

It’s very common within certain regimes to rank individuals higher due to aspect off the ranking bracket.

Like in the Soviet Union high ranks were all political, not skill based. That’s why Chernobyl disaster.

Von Braun’s military rank had nothing to do with military and he ded not attend in atrocities against humanity. He was in a lab doing rocket science.

They were all conscripted and when in that kind of situation (drafted by monsters) you just do not say no. And while being there you may also do everything that is possible to make the shit little less shit.

This post shows only one narrow angle an forgets what really was remarkable about these individuals.

And no. I’m no way pro nazi or anything even remotely like that.
