I'm convinced that my great grandfather was autistic. My great grandfather could recite the inner mechanisms of a V1 and V2 guidence system 70 years after last laying eyes on them, he could also remember how to disassemble a Stuka air break similarly well. There was also the fact that whenever my great grandmother got a new appliance he HAD to disassemble it and reassemble it.
Just as a quick note he was not German, he was American-Scots he was in US Naval R&D during the war.
