All the stuff in the USA named after Von Braun doesn’t surprise me.
Really interesting to see all the stuff named after Philippe Pétain in the USA. Looks like it was banned after him in the 1920s-1930s due to his role for France/allies in WWI. Then he became a Nazi collaborator later.
Good reminder of why you shouldn’t name things after people who are still alive.
“Gather round while I sing you of Werner Von Braun
A man whose allegiance was ruled by expedience
Call him a Nazi
He won’t even frown
‘Nazi-Schmazi’ says Werner Von Braun.”

don’t say that he’s hypocritical, say rather that he’s apolitical
