Yes Jack, the Germans certainly knew how to make intricate equipment. Just look at the workings of the Deutscher FH gearbox! How Deutscher survived the war I don't know. Some of our relatives going back were German/Australian and they were treated terribly during the war - same with the Japanese in USA.
It's surprising how many people still think all Germans were Nazi, which wasn't the case.
This book is well worth reading:
