Mittelwerk

One such example was the British bombing of Mittelwerk, a German factory building V-2 rockets, and the prison camps where those rockets were built.

A friend quotes Von Braun speaking of a visit to Mittelwerk: It is hellish.

Deciding that Kammler's order was their best bet to defect to the Americans, von Braun fabricated documents and transported 500 of his affiliates to the area around Mittelwerk, where they resumed their work.
