Agreed, if allied troops were outside Germany.
I don't think captured German scientists had all that much affect on the early A bombs. Germans who left because of Nazi religious and racial policy did though... |
Germany was close to developing the A-Bomb. Some say the second US bomb was "made in Germany" - at least the raw materials. In 45 the US was still a long way off from being able to mass produce nuclear weapons. I believe you underestimate the destructive power of regular bombing on the Reich from 42-45. The same goes for the German peoples' will to resist. It took two A-bombs to knock Japan out - on top of everything else - and the US would not have been able to come up with a third so quick.
