Believe it or not, those B-24s did in fact bomb a Ford factory
and, believe it or not, many of those Luftwaffe fighters sent up to protect that factory were being fueled by synthetic fuel being developed in a joint venture by Nazi Germany and Standard Oil of the United States.
Fact is, the Justice Department decided to end the un-American activities process against Standard Oil in 1944, as in their judgement the war was already lost for Germany.
So from the US entry into the war in 1941, Standard Oil, in one form or another, was still doing business with Nazi Germany in 1944.
