In the Name of National Security: Unchecked Presidential Power and the Reynolds Case
Louis Fisher
When a B-29 bomber exploded over Georgia in 1948, the victims' families were denied access to crucial information relating to the accident because the federal government claimed such access would endanger national security. When the Supreme Court upheld that claim in United States v Reynolds (1953), a new precedent was established.
