To add to this, the USA was lucky enough to hustle a bunch of Nazi scientists out of Germany and into the US just AFTER the war, too. Werner Von Braun comes to mind, but there were others. Von Braun did not give a shit about Nazi philosophy and only wanted money so he could build and test his rockets. That’s what we promised him to get him to come to to the USA. But as I recall, there was a “secret” operation created with the singular goal of getting Nazi scientists out of Germany and to the US in ‘45 and ‘46 before the British or Soviets could recruit or just plain kidnap them.
