The fluid line between good and evil

Two very interesting books about a piece of history no one acknowledges or talks about. “Orderly and Humane” by R. M. Douglas and “Forgotten Voices” by Ulrich Merten. Immediately after the Second World War, the victorious Allies authorized and helped to carry out the forced relocation of German speakers from their homes across central and southern Europe to Germany. The numbers were...

Hess and the most controversial event in the History of World War II

Without doubt, the most bizarre and controversial event in the History of World War II was the parachute jump by Deputy Führer Rudolf Hess into Scotland on May 10, 1941. Hess was supposedly on a peace mission to negotiate a peace between England and Germany. Hess was allegedly on his way to see the Duke of Hamilton in Scotland, with...

The Vertreibungsverbrechen – Crimes of Expulsion

In the shadows of history’s pages lies a tragedy of immense proportions – one deliberately obscured from worldwide consciousness. While much has been written about the crimes committed by Germans during World War II, a deafening silence surrounds the crimes committed against Germans. This silence must be broken. The Systematic Expulsion: A Crime Against Humanity In the final days of...

Soldiers to the last day, the Rhineland-Westphalian 6th Infantry Division

After six years of war, the Rhineland-Westphalian 6th Infantry Division was no more, its members either scattered to the winds or marching the long trek to Siberia. Those who had availed themselves of the opportunity offered by their general to attempt to escape to the West soon questioned the wisdom of their choice. As they climbed over mountains, swam across...

Reinhard “Teddy” Suhren, Ace of Aces

Reinhard ‘Teddy’ Suhren fired more successful torpedo shots than any other man during the war, many before he even became a U-boat commander. He was also the U-boat service’s most irreverent and rebellious commander; his lack of a military bearing was a constant source of friction with higher authority. Valued for his good humour and ability to lead, his nickname...

The WW II German Flying Saucers

William Lyne on the German Flying Saucers (part One): In this short summary, I will avoid suspected misinformation, or material which is unrealistically speculative. There were purportedly several inventors working in Nazi Germany on various types of flying saucers, not all of which were electro-propulsive in concept, meant to operate on rocket, jet, turbojet, or prop-driven reactions of the aerodynamic...

German saucers and the Roswell crash

This is a relating topic with the history of Otto Maier and the myth about his mysterious engine. In July 1947 a saucer shaped object dropped out of the sky in Roswell, New Mexico. Choosing the explanation that extraterrestrials manned a spacecraft and crashed it in Roswell is the least probable explanation of all. Farrell shows this realistically in his book Roswell and the...

The Forgotten Tragedy of the Rhine Meadow Camps

The memory of the Rhine Meadow Camps, where thousands of German soldiers were held as prisoners by the Western Allies after World War II, remains disturbingly absent in Germany’s collective memory. This omission is not just a matter of historical oversight; it reflects deeper political motivations and the reluctance of mainstream historians to confront uncomfortable truths. For decades, the fate...

German Field Propulsion Saucers

We already looked at the conventional disc shaped aircraft, made in Germany. But it seems when digging into Otto Maier’s story and his engine that the properties of his saucer don’t match those of the conventional saucer types. So, what about field propulsion and electromagnetic propulsion (EMP) driven technologies? EMP is the principle of accelerating an object by the utilization of a flowing...

Producing Synthetic Gasoline out of Water

Synthetic Gasoline – Although we still do not know how nature produces oil, yet we possess already for a long time the knowledge to produce it artificially. Friedrich Bergius a German chemist received the Nobel Prize in 1931 in recognition for inventing the process for producing synthetic gasoline in 1913. Since 1927, I.G. Farben A.G. continued to improve this development process in their laboratories at the...

German flying saucer - fliegende Untertasse

Flying Saucer invented in Germany

Exact 75 years ago – on 15 july 1941, Rudolf Schriever started the development of a jet driven flying saucer. Article published in magazine “Die Deutsche illustrierte” 1953 There is a man in Germany who can say much more about flying saucers than any other man on this planet. He lives in a small house near Bremerhaven and his place buzz...

The Night The Files Went Dark

In 1945, three “smoking guns” set the stage for the quiet removal, redistribution, and even destruction of Germany’s most advanced research. This detective-style dive follows the paper trail—from Truman’s license-to-steal order to a midnight conference in Frankfurt and a vanished hilltop lab—to reveal how electromagnetic and communications breakthroughs could simply disappear. Background reading that reframes what might have happened to...
