Louis Weinstein didn't see action abroad during World War II. But in his role as a plainclothes investigator for the Army, he got around plenty, from Chicago, where he interviewed scientists for a top-secret government project, to Detroit, where the German Bund was alive and active, to San Francisco, where he debriefed POWs and performed security for the first meetings of the United Nations.
