EUROPE: The last known surviving member of the German engineering team that came to the United States after World War II and designed the rocket that took astronauts to the moon has died.
Oscar Carl Holderer died Tuesday in Alabama, son Michael Holderer said Wednesday. He was 95. Holderer said his father suffered a stroke last week and did not recover.

Their move was part of a project called “Operation Paperclip” that transferred technology for the German V-2 and other rockets to the United States.
