Background

In April 1998, the Federal Bureau of Investigation destroyed a complete file regarding Vannevar Bush, a prominent scientist and alleged member of the Majestic-12 group. The file, designated as 161-BS-1452, was acknowledged by the FBI as having been destroyed when researchers requested access through the Freedom of Information Act. This destruction is significant because Bush is considered a central figure in UFO conspiracy theories surrounding the secretive MJ-12 committee. The loss of these records prevents researchers from examining potential connections between Bush's wartime scientific leadership and post-war UFO investigations. Via TheBlackVault.com (FOIA).
