Re: Laureate Of The Stalin Prize.
I visited Sachsenhausen concentration camp near Berlin and part of that is also a building with an exhibit on Sachsenhausen after WW2 when it became a camp run by the Soviets to detain nazis or other unwanted individuals.
In this exhibition i stumbled on a stalin prize awarded to a german with a rather interesting story. Bruno Golecki was removed from the camp in November 1947 along with other "specialists" and relocated to the soviet union. In 1953 he was awarded a stalin prize for his efforts leading a group of 100 german specialists/engineers in developing a rocket navigation system for the soviet air defense. Presumably some of his former colleagues from the nazi time were working in the US for NASA, whereas he landed on the other side. Surprising that one could go from being a "bad guy" to winning a staling prize within 10 years. |
