A game show featuring Stalin would be a suitably absurd comedy sketch, yet it&#8217;s not far from the truth.

The fact that the US space program was kicked off by a Nazi who was let off because he was useful was made famous by Tom Lehrer. However the comparison between these two films rams the point home. 
At top is color film from 1944 showing Von Braun as a Nazi, testing the V2.
