Dark Star Unresolved Post-war Nazi Mysteries

Even though dozens of top Nazi scientists were persuaded to switch their allegiance to the United States (or other Allied nations) through Operation Paperclip at the end of World War II, many innovators continued working under their original allegiance to the Third Reich. Operating from secret bases in Norway, Greenland, the Canary Islands, Antarctica and South America, these scientists developed astonishing technologies and a postwar Nazi power structure called the 'Dritte Macht' or Third Power. Stevens painstakingly provides the details, function and location, of several of these bases while revealing the underlying technologies being developed-they are interrelated in unexpected ways, and Stevens' fluency in German aids in his being able to present brand new evidence from documents and testaments translated by him for the first time. Stevens details how Hans Kammler survived the war, and set up shop in Prague. Together with Otto Skorzeny and his South American group and Reinhard Gehlen and his crew in Munich, Kammler lifted the 'Nazi International' into the Third Power, an information-based organization integral to the functioning of the Cold War.
