  No they hadn't, no they didn't. No it wasn't. No they didn't... in that order. The Nazi's had no atomic programme advanced enough to create a reactor, even less a bomb. They certainly knew it was theoretically possible, but didn't pursue it thinking that development would take years longer than they anticipated the war to take.

    Yeah they’re is so wrong on this that I’m honestly curious where they got that idea from. It sounds like comic book style WWII fanfiction, like something from a Hellboy or Wolfenstein AU

  What? Germany did not have a Atomic bomb by the end of WW2. Where the hell are you getting your information?

Speaking of WW2 spies, this is a crazy larger than life character. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juan_Pujol_García https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juan_Pujol_García
