Recent documentation shows that
Australia, among others, offered refuge to
Nazi scientists after
WWII. They "adopted" 35 nazis in total, 15 of which had been in the
SS and 6 of whom were wanted
war criminals.
The nazi scientists went to work directly in the defense department and greatly boosted the Aussie military infrastructure.
Great Britain brokered the deal. It's an ill wind that blows no good, as they say.
