The story about the jets and the V2 rockets makes me wonder when the race to grab the best scientists is going to start. The Russians have to be not just thinking about it but planning it. I imagine the U.S. and the British also have to have some unit that is working on it.
I guess that ultimately the brutality of the Russians worked against them in that regard. The best minds fled West, not East, right? :-)
Thank God we were able to reach the Elbe.
Sad that we couldn’t go further.
