Can anyone tell me if the death of SS Obergruppenfuhrer Kammler was
ever resolved or ever investigated fully by any government after WWII.

No and thats not surprising considering the chaos overwhelming Germany
at the time. Dornberger (who hated the man) reported that Kammler
had ordered his adjutatnt to shoot him and its known that he didnt
acompany those that fled towards the American forces


There seems to be alot of speculation about this man, is there a
single piece of documentary evidence to suggest his involvment with
any German nuclear programme during WWII.

None at all. He was an 'expert' at running concentration camps
not a physicist or engineer and the German nuclear program
was never more than a relatively low key research program
that never employed more than a 100 or so people.

I have heard his name
mentioned in relation to a host of secret projects, death ray weapons
etc but never has this been supported by any historical documents.
Nick Cooke mentions him in his book but really Cooke just spins the
same old Nazi UFO yarn which has been doing the rounds this past 20
years or so - in his revised 'who dunnit format'.

Could Kammler have survived the war and made a peace deal with the
allies as Gen Wolff did in Operation Sunrise?

No, he really had nothing to offer, the Americans had Dornberger,
Von Braun etc. while Heisenberg and co were safely under wraps
at Farm Hall were it became apparent they were knew less than
the western allies had in 1942.

The Soviets of course had no shortage of people who knew how to
build Gulag's and the west had no need to so his one area of expertise
was throughly redundant.

Its remotely possible that he got out through and became a
farmer in Argentina but doubtful IMHO

I think if Kammler's war
diary could be found it would answer alot of interesting questions.

Assuming he kept one.
