Heisenberg, on the other hand was the lead scientist in Hitler's nuclear bomb program. He too was a giant in physics (and Nobel laureate) but obviously no-one was as famous as Einstein.
As a side-note Germany had brilliant physicists. Heisenberg, Bothe, Hahn etc. Thankfully they never really managed to pool all their experience in just one project, instead they had competing projects and that's why USA caught them and build the first bomb.

He did meet Heisenberg who I think you meant, not Bohr, but Bohr AFAIK didn't work for the Nazis. Bohr stayed in Copenhagen during the war.
Plus Bohr's mother was Jewish.
