Earlier this year, the U.S. Army launched an internal review of records related to the recovery of remains in Grenada in 1983, and efforts to locate Maurice Bishop’s body.
“This is the first serious effort by the Pentagon in decades to address the role the United States played in the disappearance of Grenadian Prime Minister Maurice Bishop’s remains,” said Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.), who pushed for the Army to investigate.
In this new update to the series, The Washington Post’s Martine Powers unpacks the findings of the Army’s investigation, the facts and events that it outlines, and the questions it stops short of answering.
