Person

Vannevar Bush

American scientist; alleged member of MJ-12 in documents considered fake

1947 · Historical figures (1933–2007) · Scientist

An American scientist, he is among the twelve alleged members of the MJ-12 committee listed in the documents circulated since 1984, along with, among others, Hillenkoetter and Twining. The membership is considered a forgery: among the indications cited by Wikipedia, a Truman signature in the corpus is identical to that of an October 1, 1947 letter addressed to Bush himself. The FBI considered the MJ-12 document completely false.

Controversies
