-Caveat Lector- <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"> </A> -Cui Bono?- GERMAN SECRET WEAPONS and THE NAZI UFO CONNECTION I'll be writing a summary of the German translated book I have from the same time span (mid sixties) called UFOs Nazi Secret Weapon by Mattern and Friedrich. My book has all the models they made and who made them and when. Including how they got down to Antarctica, when and where they made their bases there and what type of completed spaceships they took with them. They took 11,000 photos in 1937-38 just for mapping purposes of Antarctica. The Nazis during the war forged about 15 billion dollars for Hitler in American dollars and sterling. They were so perfect the banks couldn't tell. The British had to withdraw its 5 pound note after the war because of this forgery. Laundered in Switzerland of course. They were Ok for supplies from South Africa. I remember reading in one of those Montauk books by Peter Moon that the Nazis managed to take about $10 million of Jewish gold through France to USA too.

GERMAN SECRET WEAPONS and THE NAZI UFO CONNECTION RENATO VESCO (Under Construction) Renato Vesco This Italian aeronautical technician claimed modern "flying saucers" are the Anglo-Canadian development of very advanced German projects, namely the circular unmanned crafts "Feuerball" and "Kugelblitz". Both of them were in the prototype stage and maybe they were even flown-tested just at the end of the war. Vesco and his impressive documentation have been often used by many later authors in order to try to substantiate their empty claims. The very first book of Renato Vesco was published in 1968, but the original manuscript was ready since 1956. Because of job engagements he stopped its publication and went on collecting more material. So he had enough material to write three large books. The first one had a Spanish edition and two in US (1971, Grove and 1974, Zebra), soon becoming a reference work for most but all the authors and researchers writing about the highly controversial subject of German "flying saucers". In 1994, the book was nearly fully reprinted within a book edited by D.Childress "Man-Made UFOs 1944-1994". Here it is the second Vesco book. The author was born in Arona in 1924. The third book by Renato Vesco is a thick 553-page volume loaded with a real wealth of info. On the ground of some late war German projects (including the Norvegian-based development of the original Belluzzo's blueprints and the German atom bomb project) and post-war British breakthroughs in aeronautics and astronautics, he pointed out a fascinating but incredible scenario. British spaceships have been built after blueprints and technology captured in Germany and flown since 1947. In 1951 they landed on the Moon and in 1954 they reached Mars. Though these claims look quite unlikely and unsubstantiated, most of the evidence and sources offered by Vesco lead to some interesting considerations about German secret technology and some late '40s and '50s UFO sightings. Following the Canadian AVRO CAR project rumours, many magazines of the early '50s published news about soon-to-come man-made "flying saucers". Vesco found in these rumours more background for his theory. Just following the fast diffusion of the "flying saucer" concept as the ultimate high-performance aircraft or spacecraft, many lonely inventors and government-funded projects started to develop drawings or - less often - early prototypes of circular machines. The concept of the "man-made flying saucer" was really exciting and even welcome in an era of fast technological advancements. The wonders of science and technology of the atomic age could well explain even a dream-machine like the flying saucer. <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
