Anatomy of the Deep State -- The Shadow Government that calls the shots

[LongTomH]

19. The Cosmosphere space museum, in Hutchinson, KS, of all places, has been very honest about..........

..........the darker side of our early space program. One of the featured displays is an actual V-2 rocket that was discovered on a railroad siding in Germany, years after the war. There are two mannequin figures in the display: an engineer, in a white lab coat (possibly representing Dr. Wernher von Braun); the other is a slave worker in a prison camp outfit.



I've had an interest in space since my childhood in the 1950s. Among the things that fed that interest were appearances by Dr. Wernher von Braun on the Walt Disney Man in Space series on TV and the books by von Braun and Willy Ley that I found in my school libraries. At the time, I almost idolized Dr. von Braun. None of the available books, magazine articles or TV appearances mentioned the conditions of workers at the Mittelwerk underground factory or the Dora concentration camp.

By the way, that V-2 at the Cosmosphere, and a V-1 also on display, were discovered by a friend of mine. He arranged for the two missiles to be transported to the Cosmosphere where they were restored and put on display.
