National Socialist Germans sometimes are called the "Third Power" by German writers.  The Third Power is meant to signify a power besides the West (the First Power) or the East (the Second Power).  The Third Power is well known to the First and Second Powers, and operates secretly regarding most of the people on Planet Earth.  The Third Power has survived because of their high technology and financial strength.

On August 10, 1944, nine months before the end of World War Two in Europe, a meeting was called at the hotel Rotes Haus in Strassbourg.  In attendance were representatives of all the major German industrial concerns including I.G. Farben, Thyssen, Siemens, Krupp, Daimler-Benz, Rheinmetall-Borsig, as well as representatives of the major German banks.  Meeting with them were members of the SS.  They were planning measures that would insure their survival after a possible National Socialist abandonment of mainland Germany.(4)

Scientists, scientific plans, strategic materials, and money were to be taken from Germany and secured in secret hiding places.  Long range cargo aircraft were to fly from Germany to Spain carrying the goods.  From there items were to be loaded on U-boats bound for South America.

We know that some flying saucers were destroyed by the Germans so the advancing enemy would not benefit from them.  This scorched earth policy was a standing solution, and ruthlessly imposed by the SS, especially concerning German high technology.

The SS was a National Socialist governmental entity separate from the primary National Socialist German government.  Adolf Hitler was the head of both governments.  Hitler did not trust some individuals in the primary German government including Armaments Minister Albert Speer.  Although officials in the SS government requested and received additional workmen from Armaments Minister Albert Speer, he was not told about projects involving the use of the workmen; Speer was deliberately kept out of the SS government.  The SS was and is a governmental entity with production facilities, scientists, technicians, workmen, and secret military bases.

Michael Barton tells us that flying saucers were seen in South America before UFO's were seen over the State of Washington in 1947.  There were many sightings of UFO's in South America after World War Two, and South American sightings continue to this day.

Bill Lyne as well as Mr. Robert Lesniakiewicz and Dr. Milos Jesensky believe a German facility called "Beaver Dam" in Eastern Greenland, complete with underwater U-boat entrances, was the origin of flying saucers that flew over the USA during the 1950's.(9)(10)  According to these writers, this base did not surrender after the abandonment of the German mainland by National Socialist forces.  According to these writers, flying saucers from this base were directed to areas in the USA, especially the area in New Mexico where secret nuclear research work was done.  The status of this base today is not known.

The Ritcher Antarctic Expedition (1937-1938) was setup and funded by Hermann Goering, head of the German Air Force.  Germans on the ship Schwabenland (equipped with amphibious aircraft that could be launched via catapult) explored, mapped, and claimed a large portion of the Antarctic Continent for Germany during this expedition.  Weighted metal flags were dropped from aircraft clearly indicating the territory Germany was claiming.  The territory included ice-free lakes that were naturally heated from below by geothermal means.(5)  Along the line of these lakes a huge fault line bisects "Neuschwabenland", as it was called, so presumably a permanent heat source was built into this new territory.  One German writer has perused reports of Neuschwabenland and states that during the war repeated trips were made to this vicinity, and that a permanent base was established there.(6)  Another writer, Wilhelm Landig, in novel form, describes German bases in Antarctica, the Andes, and the North Pole area.(7)  Mr. Landig was a Third Reich insider; he was a member of the Waffen SS, and at one time was responsible for security for the development of German saucers.(8)  His books each bore the sub-title "Ein Roman voller Wirklichkeiten" or "a novel filled with realities" as this novel treatment was an easy avenue in avoiding post-war legal entanglements.

The main German Antarctic base was approached by armed forces of the United States in a 1947 military project code-named "Operation High Jump".  This operation involved a fleet of ships, including an aircraft carrier, submarines, and support craft.  It also involved aircraft and over four thousand armed troops under the command of Admiral Richard Byrd.  Four aircraft were mysteriously lost, and the whole operation, scheduled for six months duration, was canceled after less than six weeks.(11)(12)

It was reported that in the late 1950's the main German Antarctic base became the subject of a US federal government nuclear "test".(13)  According to the report, in this "test" three nuclear bombs were detonated under cover of the International Geophysical Year 1957-58.(14)  Wilhelm Landig claims the type of rockets used in the "test" over the main German Antarctic base were prototypes of the American Polaris missile, a solid-fuel rocket that was used later operationally, the final design being fired from submarines underwater.(15)  It was reported that detonation of these nuclear bombs over the main German Antarctic base generated electromagnetic shock waves meant to destroy apparatus in the base used for defensive purposes.(16)  Wilhelm Landig claims this tactic failed, and he claims this electromagnetic pulse attack was insufficient to destroy the improved apparatus.(17)

There is evidence indicating that by 1964 National Socialists had the ability to shoot down US nuclear missiles soon after launch and to de-activate US nuclear missiles before they are launched.  Recently discovered evidence indicates that National Socialists successfully tested a nuclear bomb in March 1945, four months before the first successful test of a nuclear bomb by the US federal government.  US citizens should feel fortunate that the illegal and unprovoked nuclear attack by the US federal government against a military power with superior defense technologies did not result in a disastrous response against US military targets.

Based on available evidence, fire power of National Socialist forces reached a point in 1963 that made possible a quick and easy victory over any Zionist-Communist nation.  Zionist-Communist nuclear weapons would have been useless because of advanced defense technologies of National Socialist forces.  National Socialist particle beam weapons carried by super-fast fighter aircraft would have destroyed key weapon systems of the enemy.

According to Wilhelm Landig, by the time of the 1957-58 "test", most of the German forces had abandoned the main German Antarctic base in favor of a base in the South American Andes.  Wilhelm Landig claims that the reason for removing most of the German forces from the main Antarctic base was the purity of the atmosphere in the Antarctic that is almost germ-free.(18)  It seems that the human immune system needs constant challenge to remain healthy even if this challenge does not always result in illness.  Without a constant influx of visitors supplying this challenge, the staff on-hand lost almost all immunity to infection after a few years.  The common cold became a serious matter.

There is not any doubt that the Germans had bases in the Arctic.  German bases were located in the Arctic on Soviet soil and on the soil of Greenland.  What is most surprising is Wilhelm Landig's claim that the Germans maintained a base in the Arctic on Canadian soil.(19)

Through the descriptions of Mr. Robert Lesniakiewicz, Dr. Milos Jesensky, Bill Lyne, Wilhelm Landig, and other records, it is possible to pinpoint the location of German bases in Antarctica and a large Andean base in Argentina near the Chilean border.  If his words are read carefully, Wilhelm Landig's Point 211, the main Antarctic base, can be located on the maps he supplies.(21)

Along with this monetary and technical transfer, large landholdings were purchased, secured, and set aside with the full knowledge of the South American governments in power.  From these vast secure areas members of German organizations did as they pleased.  It is not out of the question to think that flying saucers seen in the late 1940's and 1950's were built and flown from these bases.  One of these Andean bases, referred to as "Colonia Dignidad" consisted of a land area over half the size of Switzerland.(24)

The South American industrial base during these times was more than adequate to make these saucers.  But even if this were not true, this is not an argument against construction of flying saucers in South America.  Parts could have been ordered from suppliers in other nations as are done by major aircraft firms today.  Each major aircraft firm has a host of sub-contractors who manufacture everything from individual screws to complete sub-assemblies.  Many if not most of these sub-contractors are accustomed to filling these orders without ever knowing what the final assembled product will be.  This is part of the security system and unquestioned.  Germans working in South America would not have trouble using this system.  They could have ordered parts and sub-assemblies from companies in Europe and the USA.

Richard Ross, a UFO researcher based in Austin, Texas, reports that even today vast tracts of land in South America are avoided by airline pilots because of UFO activity in these areas.  He obtained this information by interviewing South American airline pilots.  He goes on to make the point that Latin America is a hotbed of UFO activity.

There remains one possible hiding place on European soil.  There remains the possibility that some German flying discs were flown to Switzerland during 1945 and hidden there in the vast system of caves built there for defensive purposes by the Swiss.  This would imply a limited partnership with the Swiss concerning a technology that neither nation wanted to lose.  One witness claims that he saw an experimental aircraft crossing the German border into Switzerland on the morning of May 9, 1945.(25)

SS General and Doctor of Engineering Hans Kammler first came to prominence because of his expertise in building extensive underground installations.  Soon his high intelligence and "can do" attitude were recognized, resulting in a meteoric rise in rank and influence within the Third Reich.  By war's end he was among the top five most powerful people in Germany.  He had the entire SS technical organization to do his bidding.  He was in charge of Peenemuende, "Der Riese" in modern Poland, Kordhausen, Kahla, the many facilities at the Jonas Valley in Thuringia, as well as the huge underground facility he built for himself in Austria.  Kammler was the leader in the application of new technology.  It was Kammler who led the research relating to the application of nuclear energy in the area of missile and aircraft propulsion.(27)

What happened to Kammler?  This was the most knowledgeable of all the German technical people.  Even Albert Speer, German Minister of Munitions, admitted under Allied interrogation, that Kammler was the expert in the area of V-weapons development.  This was not a small admission for Speer.  With the cessation of hostilities in Europe,  Kammler walked off the pages of history, never to be seen or heard from again.

Tom Agoston recounts stories about Kammler's disappearance.(28)  They read like pulp fiction.  As part of a "witness protection program", was Kammler given a new identity in exchange for SS technical information?  A new identity was a good way for Kammler to get out of his difficult situation.

One thing is striking concerning the technological history of the Twentieth Century.  The preponderance of that century's technology has its roots in National Socialist Germany during the 1930's and 1940's.  Much of the technology we use and take for granted today came from National Socialist Germany.  In support of this argument there is a long list of National Socialist achievements that include plastics, synthetic rubber, better alloys of metal, jet engines, rockets, atomic power, and semi-conductors. 

Adolf Hitler did not want war, and worked hard to prevent war.  National Socialists of today are dedicated to preventing war –– especially nuclear war.
