Nazi Secret Weapons and the Cold War Allied Legend
Nazi Secret Weapons and the Cold War Allied Legend http://myth.greyfalcon.us/sun.htm by Joseph P. Farrell GÖTTERDÄMMERUNG "A comprehensive February 1942 (German) Army Ordnance report on the German uranium enrichment program includes the statement that the critical mass of a nuclear weapon lay between 10 and 100 kilograms of either uranium 235 or element 94.... In fact the German estimate of critical mass of 10 to 100 kilograms was comparable to the contemporary Allied estimate of 2 to 100.... The German scientists working on uranium neither withheld their figure for critical mass because of moral scruples nor did they provide an inaccurate estimate as the result of gross scientific error." --Mark Walker, "Nazi Science: Myth, Truth, and the German Atomic Bomb" A Badly Written Finale "In southern Germany, meanwhile, the American Third and Seventh and the French First Armies had been driving steadily eastward into the so-called 'National Redoubt'.... The American Third Army drove on into Czechoslovakia and by May 6 had captured Pilsen and Karlsbad and was approaching Prague." --F. Lee Benns, "Europe Since 1914 In Its World Setting" (New York: F.S. Crofts and Co., 1946) On a night in October 1944, a German pilot and rocket expert by the same of Hans Zinsser was flying his Heinkel 111 twin-engine bomber in twilight over northern Germany, close to the Baltic coast in the province of Mecklenburg. He was flying at twilight to avoid the Allied fighter aircraft that at that time had all but undisputed mastery of the skies over Germany. Little did he know that what he saw that night would be locked in the vaults of the highest classification of the United States government for several decades after the war. -

The German Side of the Hill: Nazi Conquest and Exploitation of Italy, 1943-45
The German Side of the Hill: Nazi Conquest and Exploitation of Italy, 1943-45 Timothy D. Saxon Ruckersville, VA B.A., Averett College, 1977 M.Div., Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, 1980 M.A., University of Virginia, 1987 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Corcoran Department of History University of Virginia January 1999 © Copyright by Timothy Dale Saxon All Rights Reserved January 1999 11 ABSTRACT The view that German and Allied forces fought a senseless campaign for haly during the Second World War prevails in many histories of that conflict. They present the battle for Italy as a bitterly-contested. prolonged fight up the peninsula. wasting Allied men and resources. Evidence contradicting this judgment shows that Italy's political, economic, geographic, and military assets between the years 1943 and 1945 made it a prize worth winning. Allied leaders never grasped this fact nor made an effective effort to deny Germany this valuable asset. The German defense ofItaly secured the loyalty of Axis allies in Eastern Europe and permitted the establishment of a Fascist Italian puppet state under Benito Mussolini. Moreover, Germany reaped an enormous harvest of agricultural and economic products in Italy. German estimates that Italy contributed between fifteen and twenty five percent of total output in late 1944 show that it was truly a prize worth winning. The Italian economy provided large quantities of consumer goods for Germany, freeing up industrial plants in the Reich for military production. In late 1944, Italian manufacturers shifted operations and directly supported German forces fighting in Italy. -
FLYSTYRT VED TÅRS I VENDSYSSEL, 16/2 1945 I Februar
FLYSTYRT VED TÅRS I VENDSYSSEL, 16/2 1945 I februar 1945 styrtede et stort tysk bombefly af mærket Junkers 88 A-4 ned på gården Volsholt øst for Tårs. Flyets base var Tirstrup, hvortil det i januar 1945 var overført fra Magdeburg i Tyskland, med henblik på et planlagt bombeangreb mod den skotske flådebase "Scapa Flow". Til formålet beordrede Hermann G6ring mindst 27 fly til Tirstrup, heriblandt bombemaskiner, der, udover at medbringe en kolossal bombelast, tillige skulle belyse målet, og fungere som sti- findere for en del "Mister-kombinationsfly. Der var tale om to sammenkoblede fly, alene med een pilot i et jagerfly (Fokker-Wulf), som var koblet "på ryggen" af det store Junkers 88. Ideen bag denne tyske opfindelse var, at Fokkeren blev monteret ovenpå Junkeren, som var fyldt med sprængstof samt brændstof til udturen. Piloten befandt sig i Fokker-jageren, som over målet frigjorde den gigantiske bombe, og derefter fløj hjem på eget brændstof. Tillige havde tyskerne udviklet en radiobøje, "Funkbøje Schwan", som blev udlagt fra fly før an- grebet, med henblik på at hjælpe Mistel-piloterne med den præcise navigering mod målet. Det antages, at den store Junkers 88 var styret af radiobøjens signaler under indflyvning mod målet. Danske efterretningsrapporter blev i januar og februar 1945 sendt til Royal Air Force. Den 11/2 1945 styrtede en Junkers 188 ned under en vejrrekognoscering over Nordsøen. Britiske jagere skød den ned, hele besætningen gik tabt, og tyskerne mistede vigtige vejrinformationer. Vinteren var meget streng, og bombeangrebet mod Scapa Flow blev udsat. Den 14/2 1945 sendte RAF to Mosquito-jagere over Nordsøen mod Danmark, og ved et angreb mod Tirstrup ødelagde de engelske jagere i alt seks fly på jorden, heraf tre Junkers 88 bombefly og tre Fokker-jagere. -
