Dave - Re:"I was under the impression the Germans had the very first rocket/jet propulsion type aircraft...."

They had the first jet fighter aircraft, the Me 262, and the first operational rockets, the V1 and V2. The German rocket scientists were the founding corps for both the US and USSR rocket programs.

The lucky German scientists, including Werner Von Braun, surrendered to the Allied forces, the unlucky were captured by the Russians.
