Exactly!

There was a mad rush, or grab for Germany's brightest people, as well as all of their tech. One of the most notable was Wernher von Braun, creator of the V2 Rockets that terrorized Britain. Then came to the U.S. and is pretty much the founding father of NASA. The list goes on and on. Even the current U.S. military helmet is designed after the original SS helmets. The Germans were some fucked up people, but they had fucking style and they knew their shit.
