about

Project Paperclip was the code name for the repatriation of more than 1500 Nazi Scientists to America at the end of World War 2. There is a wealth of information now available on this subject, much of it from declassified documents.

America brought the best of German scientists to the States as quickly as they could at the end of the war. Concerned that the Russians would get hold of the brain power, they expedited the removal of engineers, rocket-scientists, technicians, doctors, many of whom were registered members of the NAZI party.

We now know that many were taken into Russia (around 2,000) and there is now quite a bit of information that many, actually, were taken to Antartica.

See also the American explorer Rear Admiral Richard Evelyn Byrd and Operation Highjump 1947. Admiral Byrd was tasked with a secret Arctic mission that involved a huge number of sea craft, planes and personnel.

NAZI Rocket scientist, Wernher von Braun, earlier classified as seriously dangerous, ended up being Director of Marshall Space Flight Center from 1960 to 1970.

Kurt H. Debus, and Arthur Rudolph, as well as physician Hubertus Strughold, were all labeled a "menace to the security of the Allied Forces." These men and many more were acquired and assimilated into top level American society, influencing everything from the the Apollo Program to Psychiatry to USA's Alphabet Agencies.

The phrase Sieg Heil, or Hail Victory, is now illegal in Germany and the use of the NAZI salute is a criminal offense in many countries around the world.

Originally called Operation Overcast or Operation Paperclip, Project Paperclip got its name from the paperclips that were used to keep the documents and the passports of each applicant clipped together.

lyrics

Paperclip. Meryl Leppard. c. February 2016

Sieg Heil to the right my darlings
If you wanna live
If you wann live
March on to the light my sweethearts
With all you've got to give
All you've got to give
Sign here on the dotted line
You'll be fine in America
Never underestimate the thrill
Of changing your name
Every clever little scientist
Is kissed in America
Bring the wife
Bring the kids
Oh boy,
Have we got a job for you!

Sieg Heil to the right my princes
If you know the score
If you know the score
Sail on through the night my handsomes
Never want for more
Never want for more
Sign here on the dotted line
We'll design an America
Never quibble with a pretty lie
To leverage your plan
Every slick inventive Engineer's
Revered in America
Say goodbye to your friends
Oh boy,
Have we got a job for you!

But wait....
All this paperwork
Papers all rustling
Papers all over the floor
Boys
Bring me a Paperclip
Such a little thing
Brings order once more

Sieg Heil to the right my lovelies
If you wanna dance
If you wanna dance
Proud and erudite my beauties
Come and take a chance
Come and take a chance
Sign here on the dotted line
You will shine in America
Never worry that we didn't deal
You a glorious hand
Every undisputed rocket queen
Dreams of America
Hug the folks, pet the dog
Oh boy,
Have we got a job for you!

But wait....
All this paperwork
Papers all rustling
Papers all over the floor
Boys
Bring me a Paperclip
Such a little thing
Brings order once more

Yes such a little thing
Brings order once more.
Such a little thing
Brings order
