  • Absolutely! Berg was America's foremost atomic spy who kept us safe and allowed the scientists working on our Manhattan project to quit working 16 hour days out of fear that the Nazi's were ahead of us in the development of the atomic bomb. Berg's spy work proved a negative - that the Nazi's were behind the U.S. in the development of the atomic bomb. They don't make them like Moe Berg anymore.
