I’d hoped that ‘Iron Sky’ would finally get Kammler out in the open, that perhaps a renewed interest would speed up the release of Hans Kammler’s files. His meteoric rise through the ranks of the Nazi Party and SS curriculum vitae would make a ‘Hollywood’ blockbuster in its own rite.

Imagine the general publics reaction when after watching the final instalment of the Star Wars movies, the credits start rolling to inform the audience Darth Vader was actually a living, breathing historical figure who disappeared under unusual circumstances and whose files will be locked away for another 10 years (75 in total)?

Have you guys read ‘Projekt UFO’(W.A. Harbinson). Or what about ‘Man-Made UFOs 1944-1994′ (Renato Vesco & David Hatcher Childress)? ‘German Jet Genesis’ (David Masters) p.135 Project Saucer? ‘Hitler’s Last Weapons’ (Jozef Garlinski)?

in his book “Inside The Third Reich” Albert Speer wrote…

“Both Reinhard Heydrich and Hans Kammler were blond, blue-eyed, long-headed, always neatly dressed, and well bred. Both were capable of unexpected decisions at any moment, and once they had arrived at them they would carry them through with rare obstinacy.” p.444

“In the course of my enforced collaboration with this man (Kammler), I discovered him to be a cold, ruthless schemer, a fanatic in the pursuit of a goal, and as carefully calculating as he was unscrupulous.” p.445

“At the meeting of the Armaments Staff on May 26, 1944, Kammler had boasted that he had “simply placed fifty thousand persons in protective custody in order to obtain the necessary labour” for the SS enterprises.” -p.445 (footnote)

While Kammler [in charge of Nazi secret weapons projects] carried out his job to the letter, churning out the rockets and jet aircraft that Hitler hoped would turn the tide against the Allies in the closing weeks of the war, he also set up, unbeknownst to anyone connected with those projects, a top secret research center tasked with the development of follow-on technology, a place where work on “second-generation” secret weapons was already well advanced. What Kammler had established was a “special projects office,” a forerunner of the entity that had been run by the bright young colonels of the USAF’s stealth program in the 1970s and 1980s; a place of vision, where imagination could run free, unfettered by the restraints of accountability. Exactly the kind of place, in fact, you’d expect to find antigravity technology, if such an impossible thing existed. (http://greyfalcon.us/restored/KAMMLER.htm)

Hans Kammlers Military Intelligence files are not to be released until 2020! 75 years after the Second World War we will finally get to see why the Allies have tried to bury one of the most powerful men in Nazi Germany.

The following is an extract from an article in The Atlantic Monthly, September 5, 2002 titled “The Hunt for Zero Point”

QUESTION : The archivist at Modern Military Records in Maryland told you that Hans Kammler had been ”redlined.” Can you explain what that means?

COOK : I made a lot of inquiries through her, and she found it extraordinary, given what I told her about Kammler—I had to tell her about Kammler—that there was absolutely nothing on him in the National Archive, given that just about everything he was doing should have been documented in the files somewhere. The fact that there was nothing on him was therefore highly suspicious, and in her view tended to support the theory that he’d been redlined. In other words, somebody had gone in and cleared out any meaningful documents on him.

“Pay no attention to the human cost. The work must go ahead, and in the shortest possible time.”
- p.10 The Rocket and the Reich, M.Nuefeld 1995

“(Albert)Speer wrote to Kammler praising him for turning the tunnels into a factory in two months, an accomplishment “that far exceeds anything ever done in Europe and is unsurpassed even by American standards.” – p.212 The Rocket and the Reich, M.Nuefeld 1995

Slave labourers at Dora worked 12hr days and a six-day week.

“…the attitude of Sawatzki, Kammler and the SS was a callous indifference to, or sadistic enjoyment of, the sufferings of the detainees.”
- p.226 The Rocket and the Reich, M.Nuefeld 1995

Kammler also supervised the construction of a gigantic ‘synthetic rubber plant’ (Buna plant) erected by forced labour at ‘Auschwitz’. I.G. Farben privately financed the plant to the tune of some $900,000,000 Reichsmarks ($250,000,000 in 1945 dollars or $2 billion in contemporary dollars.

At the Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunal, the Auschwitz Buna factory emerged as one of the big mysteries of the war. Despite enormous sums of money, the personal blessings of Hitler, Himmler, Goring, and Keitel, an endless supply of both skilled contract labourers and slave labor from Auschwitz totaling some 300,000 workers, approx. 25,000 of whom were simply worked to death. Despite using more power than the entire city of Berlin (the 8th largest city in the world at the time), despite such an enormous investment of lives, money, and material, “not a single pound of Buna was ever produced”.

Electrical consumption, construction costs, and I.G. Farben’s previous record -does not readily form a picture that a Buna processing plant was the type of project being constructed at Auschwitz. Such a compilation does sketch a picture, however, of another important wartime production process, though secret at the time. The process is uranium enrichment.

Ed Landry, an expert in the field of synthetic rubber production from Houston, Texas…
“That was not a rubber plant – you can bet your bottom dollar on that.” Texas

“Assertions made by General Groves after the war… were probably designed to divert attention from the German isotope separation program. The idea being that if the existence of the German uranium enrichment program could be hidden, then the cover story could be established that Germany’s atomic bomb effort consisted only of failed attempts to create a reactor pile to bread plutonium ”

- Carter P. Hydrick: Critical Mass: the Real Story of the Birth of the Atomic Bomb and the Nuclear Age.

Take into consideration then U-Boat U234′s mission to deliver cutting-edge German military technology to Japan. Departing Germany in late March 1945, its payload included V-2 rocket and jet fighter components, and about 1,200 pounds of uranium oxide, a key ingredient in Japan’s own atomic weapons program. After weeks of evading Allied attacks, the ship’s crew surrendered to the U.S. Navy upon learning of Germany’s defeat; the ship was escorted to an American port and its cargo carefully scrutinized. The uranium oxide however quickly vanished without a trace. Major John Lansdale, a Manhattan Project official who apparently confiscated the uranium for America’s own bomb-building program; argue persuasively that U-234′s uranium shipment, intended by Germany for its Japanese ally, was ultimately delivered by America, in the bombs that were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

“an integral part of the backstory”.. indeed!!..

“an integral part of the backstory”? is that like icicles that hang from your car exhaust after parking in winter??

okay given Kammler would be in his twilight years in 2010, what’s the problem? Sean Connery’s appeal to women hasn’t hurt his box-office takings in his twilight years. Darth Vader could’ve been 100′s of years old with his bio-mechanical technology keeping him alive – Kammler “should” be your Darth Vader!! he’s perfect for the role of arch-villian…

here are some excerpts on Kammler from Tom Agoston’s ‘Blunder’…

“a member of the new aristocracy of the talented, the famous, the nation’s most skilled practioners of intrigue..” “a rabidly nationalistic career officer, typified by a Tierischer Ernst, an ‘awful seriousness’..”

“Kammler’s ‘short’ career within the Third Reich was simply phenomenal.” Opinions differ widely on Kammler…

“the ‘most negatively fascinating’ character of the Third Reich, the major unportrayed figure on the Nazi chessboard. His business card would have described him as Black Genius Incarnate.”

Albert Speer wrote:

“I found Kammler absolutely brilliant, yet cold, a ruthless schemer, a fanatic in pursuit of his goal, as carefully calculating as he was unscrupulous.” “..I rather liked his objective coolness.” “No one would have thought that this quiet, unobtrusive young engineer would one day turn into one of Himmler’s most ruthless and brutal aides.”

Walther Dornberger:

“Kammler’s ‘restless piercing eyes gave one the impression of being confronted with a Renaissance condottiere. His mouth spelt brutality, arrogance, a powerful mouth with a protruding lip.”

Hans Kammler was fair, blue-eyed, ascetic-looking, restlessly intelligent, the perfect SS elite type.
