19. I had a math professor in Germany that worked on rocket fuels for the Nazis
Edited on Fri May-22-09 07:04 PM by BrotherBuzz
He missed being snatched up in Paperclip because the Russians had already rushed him off to the USSR. He defected from USSR to the USA in the early fifties and continued rocket fuel research somewhere in Georgia, USA. He wrote a book on it before he retired and was very, very proud of the work.

After he retired, he returned to Germany and taught American soldiers part-time for U. of Maryland. I was lucky to take a class from him because he prepared me very well for all my college science courses. I wish I could remember his name.

20. My father in law worked on solid rocket fuels
(PhD Chemist).

My mother in law had no clue, until one day he called from the office and said he was working late. He said he was going to stay in the office overnight.

He didn't come home until three days later, covered in bandages from head to toe.

He never explained.

D-Day: War's over, man. Wormer dropped the big one.

Bluto: Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!

Otter: Germans?

Boon: Forget it, he's rolling.

Bluto: And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough...
