PROJECT PAPERCLIP AND THE DALLAS NETWORK
I guess it was Mae Brussell who first noticed the
extenuating Nazi connections to the assassination of President Kennedy, often
talking about it on her Carmel, California radio show and writing about it in
Rebel, the radical magazine Larry Flint published.
In the course of conducting a counter-intelligence
operation to decipher the networks responsible for the Dealey Plaza Operation,
it became clear that the major defense contractors were there for a reason and
they were very interactive with each other, as well as the military.
When I asked Arthur Young, the inventor of the Bell
Helicopter, why they relocated their factory to Texas from upstate New York, he
said it was a government requirement for security purposes.
Larry Flint was from Columbus, Ohio, where Gordon
Novel fled to after being subpoenaed by New Orleans DA Jim Garrison, and
governor Rhodes refused to extradite him.
Columbus, Ohio is also the home of an obscure
government agency – the Defense Industrial Security Command (DISC) that
apparently coordinates security among the various defense contractors.
Besides their common security concerns, and their
joint education effort in creating The Graduate Research Center of the Southwest
(GRCS), another area of common interest was their cooperation with the CIA in
executing Project Paperclip – the relocation of Nazi German scientists to the
United States.
Although I haven’t read the Paperclip records yet,
its quite clear that the defense industries, especially those in Texas,
cooperated with the CIA in hiring many of these scientists and engineers.
General Dornberger, who worked alongside Weiner Von Braun in the development of
the V1 and V2 rockets, did the same on America’s Saturn rocket put a man on the
moon and was used as an ICBM. Dornberger was also in the Security department of
General Dynamics.
Then there was Lipsch - ? – the German jet engine
inventor who went to work for Collins Radio and designed a shallow water hulled
craft that was to be used in Cuba but went to Vietnam instead.
While I’m sure Bell Helicopter and others took in
their share of Nazis, most peculiar is Hans Bernd Gisivious, who was not a scientist
or engineer but a Gestapo agent who was part of the German military’s July 20,
1944 assassination plot against Hitler.
As the bomb failed to kill Hitler, Gisivious was one
of the few to escape Hitler’s wrath. Hiding out with friends, Gisivious was
saved by OSS officer Allen Dulles and his assistant Mary Bancroft, who provided
papers, documents and train tickets that allowed him to escape to Switzerland.
Ten years later, on July 20, 1954, CIA director
Allen Dulles celebrated the anniversary over dinner with Gisivious, who at that
time, was working for a Texas defense contractor.
So a survey of Paperclip subjects and locating their
post-war places of employment should give us other extensive links in the
covert intelligence network web we are re-assembling.
