Winter Soldiers Investigation

Winter Soldier Investigation was a series of hearings in the late 1970s that uncovered US military and CIA involvement in covert operations, including abuses and war crimes during the Vietnam War. Named after the codename "Winter Soldier" used by veterans, the investigation brought to light secret missions, torture, and assassination programs, highlighting the moral and legal violations committed in the name of national security. It aimed to hold those responsible accountable and increase public awareness about the true costs of war and secret government actions.
