After WW2 he developed three rockets for the US: the Redstone, the Jupiter and then Project Apollo's Saturn.
Werner von Braun
One would be Wernher Von Braun who was a Nazi scientist who was responsible for creating the the V1 (doodlebug) and V2 rocket during the second world war. After the war he sucessfully negotiated an amnesty for himself and his collegues and worked for the American Space program eventually culminating with the Apollo Series. Von Braun died in 1977.
The V1 and V2 rocket technology was developed and perfected by a team of German scientists under the leadership of pioneering rocketeer Dr. Wernher von Braun. It was von Braun, considered to be the top rocket engineer of the century, who was Germany's key leader in rocket technology that led to the success of the V1 and V2 rockets. Toward the end of the war, pioneer pioneer von Braun led his team to the American lines and surrendered to the Allies, rather than face being captured by the advancing Soviets. He and his team were brought to the United States, and after a period where their records were "bleached" by U.S. intelligence of their former past, they were put to work on the U.S. rocket programs. Von Braun became NASA's leader in rocket development, which culminated in the design and success of the Saturn V rocket.
Dr. Wernher Von Braun helped develop the V2 rocket missile and later helped the Americans use it as a Paperclip scientist at White Sands Missile Range. HEe also was a pioneer in rocket technology.
He lead the design team that built rockets for Germany, the most famous ones being the V1 and V2, the "Vergeltungswaffe", a flying bomb that was extensively used against English targets.

Wernher von Braun was a key figure in the development of rocket technology and space exploration. He was instrumental in designing the V-2 rocket during World War II and later worked on the development of rockets for the US, including the Saturn V rocket that was used in the Apollo missions to the Moon. Von Braun's work laid the foundation for advancements in space travel and played a significant role in the early space race between the US and the Soviet Union.
Dr. Wernher Von Braun helped develop the V2 rocket missile and later helped the Americans use it as a Paperclip scientist at White Sands Missile Range. HEe also was a pioneer in rocket technology.
The first missile that could carry a military payload was the V2, made by Werner von Braun, working for the Third Reich.
Von Braun, before being "employed" by NASA to help design the Apollo spacecrafts, worked in Germany under Hitler. He made (designed) the V2 Rocket, which was used somewhat extensively in WW2, especially during the terror-bombings of London.
