Arthur L. H. Rudolph, a German-born scientist who played a crucial role in developing the Saturn V rocket used in the American Moon landings, lost his attempt to regain his American citizenship. He gave up his citizenship in 1984 when he faced deportation for Nazi war crimes.
After the war, Rudolph was one of 118 German scientists secretly brought to the United States to work in the American missile program. He became the Space Agency's program manager for the Saturn project. (NY Times, Feb 20/93)
