At the time of the film’s release, Prouty was a retired Air Force Colonel turned author and public speaker. Although not technically a whistleblower, Prouty had stories to tell of the hidden history of the Cold War - from its origins in postwar planning during WW2, to the rise of national security interests associated with the CIA in the 1950s, and through the controversies of the brief Kennedy administration. Utilizing Prouty's personal records, interviews, and historic archival materials, Fletcher Prouty's Cold War also features new interviews with Oliver Stone and Len Osanic describing Prouty’s involvement with the “JFK” film and his influence in a wider community of interest.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
