The only thing that saved Heisenberg was the fact that his mother was a childhood friend of Himmler's mother, and she intervened on his behalf. He got off, but had to disavow himself from any scientific results that may have originated from Jews. So even German hero's like Heisenberg who led the German atomic bomb program were not immune from the Nazis. And forget about the myth that he propogated after the war that he intentionally led the German a-bomb program in the wrong direction. Not true. Dan C.
