Exposing a Government Secret: The Greenbrier Bunker

The video discusses the Greenbrier Bunker, a secret facility built during the Cold War to protect Congress in case of nuclear war. Constructed under President Eisenhower's directive, the bunker was hidden beneath the Greenbrier Resort in West Virginia. It featured extensive facilities to support Congress for 60 days. Despite never being used, the bunker remained a secret until a 1992 Washington Post article revealed its existence. Today, it serves as a tourist attraction, highlighting the lengths governments go to protect sensitive information.
