EP 13: Operation Paperclip

This week on Hashtag History, we are taking a deep look into one of the most controversial operations to ever be conducted by the United States Government. This operation took place shortly after World War II, a global conquest initiated by Germany in which the world witnessed the deaths of approximately 70 million people. The world saw firsthand how powerful and how devastating the Nazi Party could be. So why, between the years of 1945 and 1959, would the U.S. Government pay for nearly 2,000 Germans (some which had been leaders in the Nazi Party) to come here to the United States to work on some of our most top secret projects? This is the story we are diving into this week as we analyze Operation Paperclip.
